Transport
You second post was a direct response to my post inferring that the buses are never packed and pickpockets don't exist in Mallorca.
You may have had the perfect experience.............but that it not always the case!
Maybe we should just leave it there and agree to disagree.

Resorthoppa Improved Service
Last year TheFussies had very unfavourable experiencies with Resorthoppa. Pleased to report that service was back to normal this year. A new record was set for us from doors openning on the plane, collecting luggage and wheels rolling on the coach 45 minutes and in the port at apartment in a further 55 minutes. Would have struggled to better those times by taxi!
Return journey was also an improvement with no more of the 2+ hours waiting on check in desk to open. Coaches arrived either on time or within 5 minutes of stated times for all three return journies of our party. Will use again

Still pondering options...we are staying in Palma then travelling to PP on Saturday 28th, family of 4, kids self sufficient (ish!). So public bus right to Llenaire seems a no brainer. Was planning on doing the same in return but thinking it through, the change in Palma, waiting around, luggage, feeling down about coming home etc we are re thinking the return. So resort hoppa is a one way option, how frequent do they run from the port to the airport?

URI i don't think Resort Hopper operate on a timetable as such, it's more like supply and demand and they tell you your pick-up time when they know how many users they will have and what times their flights are .

Thanks Sparky, think we'll stump up for a taxi return, squeeze every last minute on the beach (or maybe at Laguna).

Hi Gordon, we used the resorthoppa this visit for the first time and found it very good. From landing to arriving in Pollenca took 2hrs which I thought was very good the driver even dropped us off close to our finca and we walked home which saved us getting a taxi from the port. We go home today back to the rain hope you have a great break!

We also used Resorthoppa for our recent trip and had no problems whatsoever. From landing to apartment in under 2hrs. Return pick-up on time and at airport 2 hrs before our flight. Hopefully all will go smoothly for you gers1873.
