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 new outlet, which features eight digital kiosks and eight production lines, aligns with other recent refurbishments at the airport aimed at enhancing the passenger experience.

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.

McDonald's Spain chief restaurant officer Ángel Castillo stated: “This opening represents a new milestone and another example of our commitment to the Balearic Islands."

He called the region "an area of strategic interest for the company where we already have over 20 restaurants".

McDonald's operates 43,500 locations in more than 100 countries.

The largest McDonald's in the world is the 19,000ft² Epic McD in Orlando, Florida.

The UK's biggest McDonald's is located in Formby, Merseyside, offering nearly 300 seats and showcasing the latest innovations from the fast-food giant.

McDonald's first quarter 2025 global sales dipped by 1%, including a 3.6% drop in the US and a 1% fall in international markets, partly due to 2024's leap year.

Net income decreased to $1.87bn from $1.93bn reported in the previous year.
