Which Shuttlebus - Palma?

beachbeth

Has anyone used a shuttlebus at Palma, Mallorca? We need to go from the airport to Cala Millor. Don't want to pay the earth but don't want to be on a bus that will take 4 hours to get us there.

ResortHoppa generally the best but really depends upon when you are going as (typically Spanish this one) coach/bus drivers are striking on various days and this strike (from experience) includes the airport mini-buses etc. Suggest you look at your dates first to see if they are on 'strike days' and work from there.
Part of the story here ......

but there is a link on this thread to the actual article covering the strike.

The article is in Spanish though. Where can i find a timetable? We will arrive in Majorca on Tuesday 10th at about 11.30am and need to go from resort to airport on Friday 13th at about 4.00pm.

I know about the translation in Google! I just wondered if there was an English report about this.

Assuming the strikes finish on Sunday (The Daily Mail says this is the case), can anyone recommend a shuttlebus?

Go to Resorthoppa.com and enter your details. We used them, they were briliant. Cala Millor is around £16 per person return.

Will they drop you anywhere near your hotel?

WelshSun

The site indicates they drop you off at any hotel, or 'registered' apartment complex in the resort.


Has anyone else used this company before?
I’m looking to use them in Poland this summer. The price is very good, but it doesn't indicate what time the coach will get to the hotel, only the transfer would be around 40 minutes (A taxi to my hotel would be 20 minutes by comparison).
Say if my flight landed at midday, what time would the coach leave? As the site doesn't say.

If you pay with Mastercard they give you a 15% discount also???

Check the Daily Bulletin (Mallorca paper) Google for report re strikes - report not as comprehensive as El Mundo but it does give the dates.
No connection with this firm but they seem to be getting the best comments this year re transfers .......

They are actually a broker and sub out to the various operators but understand value is good.
If you want to get to a specific hotel with say ResortHoppa then just email them to check before you book. Plenty of Codes + Quidco to get 10%/15% discount on their fares.
