Majorca - Airport Transfer with bikes

dazz_ni45

We are back in Majorca this spring and taking our own bikes.

Is there any recommendations on airport transfers to Puerto Pollensa for two passengers with bike boxes? I have looked into hiring a car but it isn't working out any cheaper so I prefer not to have the hassle.

Thanks

I used this lot last month

New minibus, turned up on time, polite staff and pay the driver.

A couple of lads who were with us last year caught the 340 Palma-Port Pollenca Express bus!
It only took a little longer than the traditional transfer and was something ridiculous like €15 each!!!No problems with the bikes either.
The only downside was they only run 06:00-22:00 so if your flights outside those times then it could mean long waits.
Seriously looking into it for next May as only being 2 of us instead of the usual 8-10 makes Transfer-shuttles quite expensive!

Unfortunately our flight doesn't land until 1am so the bus isn't an option. The out of hours pick up also made the hire car option more expensive.

I think we might encounter a similar problem as it looks like the cheap flights all land in the early hours so what we'd save getting the express bus we'd more than make up on a flight that arrives in the daytime

http://www.shuttledirect.com operate in Mallorca and their booking form includes the option to specify bikes as additional luggage. I have used them to book transfers next door in Menorca, no bikes though.

Since the original post, has anyone else used the red & yellow TiB buses with a bike box ?

I am thinking of using the A11 service to Paguera in october

we have in recent years only stayed at playa de plama . we get the public bus at the airport to outside the hotel, no problem and quicker and cheaper than other methods. I have not bussed to Paguera. If you have an early flight cycling is feasible. I have done that , about 2hrs , but luggage rack probably needed. I think Phillips bike team shop is near Paguera and you could hire good bikes for a week for not much more than taking your own.
