McDonald’s has unveiled a new European outlet at Palma de Mallorca Airport in Spain.
The 10,765ft² outlet is situated at Level P30, Module A Airside, exclusively accessible to non-Schengen Zone country passengers. This location means that it will primarily serve British and other international visitors.

The addition of table service and a McCafé adds to the dining options available to the estimated 750,000 British tourists who visit Majorca each summer.
This expansion is a part of the airport’s broader renovation efforts.
The new branch has created 200 new jobs in addition to the 1,000 McDonald’s employees across the Balearic Islands.
