Yes, you can smoke at Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI): after security on a small terrace opposite Gates C42–C43 in Module C, which travellers found open in August 2026, and before security outdoors outside the terminal, on the departures (Level 2) or arrivals (Level 0) side. Flights to the UK and other non-Schengen destinations leave from Module A, behind passport control, so smoke before you go through.
After Security: Module C Terrace
The terrace sits in Module C, at the level of the C38–C48 gate area, opposite Gates C42–C43. In May 2026 travellers described it as a half-open area reached through an automatic sliding door, with a small sign above the door, and in June and August 2026 travellers again found it open opposite Gates C42–C43. It is easy to miss. On 15 April 2026 a reader rated Palma 1 out of 10 for smoker friendliness and wrote only “None”. Aena lists no smoking area at Palma, so ask staff if you cannot find it.
Module A (Non-Schengen) and Modules B and D
Module A handles non-Schengen flights, including the UK, behind passport control. Travellers described its old terrace near Gate A08 closed for renovation in April and June 2023, and in June 2026 travellers described the walk from the shops after security to the Module A gates, with passport control in between. Smoke at the Module C terrace, or outside the terminal, before you go through passport control.
Modules B and D: in July 2025 travellers described no smoking area in either module. From Module D, walk to the Module C terrace. Module B is the inter-island module and has its own security check next to its entrance, so ask staff there whether you can reach Module C.
Before Security (Landside)
Before security, smoke outdoors, outside the terminal building, on the departures (Level 2) or arrivals (Level 0) side; Aena marks no landside smoking area, so ask staff at the doors if you are unsure where smoking is allowed. Aena is making the open-air terrace on the upper floor, once before security, part of the shopping area after security.
Vaping
Aena publishes no vaping rule for Palma, so ask staff before you vape on the Module C terrace or anywhere in the terminal.
