Steve Last Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Does anyone know if there are any air or sea connections from the south of France to Majorca ? Initial web searces have not produced anything so far..... Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Friends caught the ferry from Barcelona to Palma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Last Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Yes. I'm aware of that possibility... our problem is that we will be in the Vaucluse: we have the possibility of going to Mallorca in a friend's boat maybe from Nice, but can't figure out how to get back! Maybe have to leave our car in Nice, get a ferry back to Barcelona, rent a a car from there and leave it in Nice. However rental in Spain and leaving in France tends to be pretty expensive! I did find a "cheap flight" connection from Palma to Marseille on BA, which turned out to be via Gatwick! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eslier Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 If you book with Air France then it may mean a change of plane in Barcelona but prices are still quite competitive. Air France code share with Air Europa for flights into Palma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 What about the train from Barcelona to Nice when you get back. Probably take all day, but should be a pleasant ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilot Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 There used to be and still may be a ferry service from Sete to the Balearics and North Africa. I know the African services still run. so it could be worth checking. No other details I'm afraid, but a web search may bring something to light.

Steve Last Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Thanks for the suggestions - Sete sounded good but unfortunately it appears that the company involved "Balearexpress" ceased operating in 2003. We'll keep researching! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Unfortunately, there are no ferry services from France to Majorca. You may find this site useful for future reference on all ferry operations in Europe and North Africa.http://www.aferry.to/Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
