A route that strengthens inter-island connectivity
The flights between Palma and Castellón are operated with an ATR 72-600 with a capacity for 72 passengers. This is the second consecutive season that this summer connection is offered, allowing residents of Mallorca to travel directly to the north of the Valencian Community without the need for stopovers.
The general director of Aerocas, Raquel París, highlighted in a statement that the activation of this route means that Castellón airport now has all the planned regular routes for this year. The 16 routes total 36 weekly frequencies, which equates to 72 weekly flights to or from Castellón, a record figure for the airport.

Tickets can be purchased through the airline operating the route, with prices varying depending on how far in advance the booking is made.
Castellón airport sets passenger records
