On the Spanish island of Mallorca, many locals make a living from tourism. Especially the one practiced by the Germans. But the pandemic kept the beaches deserted for months, and tourism collapsed. The hope is that the summer season will make up for the losses. A Deutsche Welle team was at the island's airport when the first tourist plane arrived.
Mallorca waited three months for this plane. It brings the first tourists since the isolation due to the coronavirus and is part of a pilot project during a pandemic. In the new Arrivals terminal of the airport there are health questionnaires and infrared rooms that measure your temperature.
Summer vacation suddenly became a news topic. Not even the arrival of the first East Germans in Mallorca after the fall of the Berlin Wall 30 years ago has been so intensely publicized.
Lluis Mestres, journalist: I think it's because I was in total isolation for three months and, at that time, everything that was normal stopped being normal. And what was not supposed to be news - that millions of Germans are coming to Mallorca - is now suddenly one. They are received as stars.
Thomas and Antonia Tobor arrived from Bonn this morning. I patiently answer every question.
More than four million German tourists come to the island every year. The seaside resorts are mainly dedicated to mass tourism. But that did not affect the popularity of the island of Mallorca.
Antonia and Thomas Tobor had time at the hotel to recover after meeting with the press. It's their first vacation together in a while. Normally, it was the peak season now, but here they have the cliff just for them. It is a luxury at package prices.
It doesn't bother them that the popular clubs in Mallorca are still closed.
