Until Mallorca diversifies from the tourism sector and adds more revenue streams to support itself, this can only be good news. To many residents I know it doesn't seem like that ("can't walk in the streets for back-packs and pushchairs") but the fact is that it's no good for anyone resident in Mallorca to see the island fail and it's only source of income reduce. If/when that happens, shops and restaurants will close, large numbers of people will become unemployed and the island's infrastructure will crumble. So celebrate these tourism figures and enjoy, while it lasts!
