Very misleading information. It is written as though we can expect some 7 million people in Mallorca this winter? Nonsense. Will be a fraction of that. What does it mean these “winter seats”? Means counting every seat on every aircraft that lands during the period, regardless of how many times it goes back and forth between Palma and Barcelona for example, and regardless of whether the seats are occupied or not. Not much change from last winter will ultimately be the conclusion.
Insane.
Wait, isn't Mallorca all closed down from November to March? You won't find much open in Magaluf or Palmanova. Where could they possibly be going?
