TUI Airways is returning to Southampton Airport for the first time in 15 years.

The airline will offer a weekly flight to Palma De Mallorca from Southampton every Tuesday from May 27, 2025, until September 20, 2025, and align with Marella Cruises' summer program.

The new weekly flight will give holidaymakers and cruise fans a seamless link to Mallorca’s sandy beaches, cultural hot spots, and warmer weather. 

In a statement, TUI UK’s director of aviation planning, Karen Switzer, said: “We are extremely excited to return to Southampton Airport to reconnect travellers with the vibrant corner of the world that is Palma.

“We understand how important it is for customers to have access to flights from their local airports, and this latest addition brings the number of regional airports that TUI Airways fly from to 24.

“We look forward to welcoming customers on board from May next year and taking them away on their dream Mallorcan holiday.”
