Description

Son Bonet Aerodrome in Marratxí is a small airfield on Mallorca, operated by Aena, serving general aviation, flight schools, and sightseeing flights.

Flight Schools, Private Flying & Scenic Flights

Son Bonet is the main hub for general aviation on Mallorca. The airfield is widely used by flight schools for training and instruction — and if you're flying in by light aircraft, landing fees here are considerably more affordable than at the main Palma airport. Sightseeing flights also depart from here, including helicopter tours, which come highly recommended.

A Rich Aviation Heritage

Son Bonet has a long and distinguished place in aviation history: the site has been used as a landing ground since 1921, welcoming the first aircraft to reach the island. The original 1920s terminal building still stands and is well worth a look for anyone with an eye for architecture. At the entrance, visitors are greeted by a restored DC-3/C-47, and an Antonov AN-2 is also on display in the grounds. This blend of living aviation and preserved heritage gives the aerodrome a character all of its own.

Café & Relaxation Area

There's a cafeteria with a terrace on site — a peaceful spot to sit back and watch the activity on the apron.
