Can I buy a Palma intermodal transport card right when I land at the airport?

At Palma de Mallorca Airport, you can easily get your intermodal transport card soon after you arrive, which simplifies travel across the island's bus and train networks. The airport hosts several ticket points, including vending machines and staffed counters near the arrivals hall, where you can purchase and load the TIB card for seamless access to buses running throughout Palma, to towns like Alcudia or Soller, and even to popular beaches such as Cala Mondrago or Es Trenc. Starting your journey with this card lets you skip buying separate tickets for each trip and saves hassle when using Palma’s local metro or the scenic Soller railway.

Staff members at the airport are generally helpful and can advise on the best options for your itinerary, whether you plan to explore the Tramuntana mountains via the Ma-10, or head east towards Manacor. The card can be topped up as needed at many locations across the island, including Palma’s bus stations and train stations, so you won't need to worry about running out of credit while discovering the island’s diverse landscapes or sampling local treats like pa amb oli or sobrassada. Keep in mind, bus and train schedules vary seasonally, so it's worth checking the TIB official website for the most current information.
