Is the declaration of the air transport as a public service proposed by Madrid enough?
Is the declaration of the air transport as a public service proposed by Madrid enough?
In September the central Spanish government intends to pass the declaration
of Public Service for the air routes between the Balearic islands. The
public service will fix a maximum tariff of 72 euros, that will be 48 with
the resident's discount, for routes between Mallorca and Menorca, and between
Mallorca and Eivissa. Meanwhile the times of the flights will have
to be coordinated with the maritime routes between Eivissa and Formentera.
In opposition to what had been requested from the Balearic Government
and from the Menorcan and Pitiüses Councils, the declaration of public
service will not affect the links with the mainland.
