I think it funny that there’s an assumption in this thread that these posters are aimed at U.S. tourists when visitors from the U.K. outnumber the Americans by a factor of six to one.

Are you counting by individuals or by volume?

(sorry)

No worries. There’s a chart on the Wikipedia page above. The U.K. boasts over 18 million tourists per year while the U.S. is just over 3 million.

I'm surprised there's that many Americans tbh, I wouldn't have thought it would be on their radar, I think of Mallorca as a package holiday destination for Western Europeans.

The tourism figures were for the totality of visitors to Spain, not to Mallorca specifically.

Ahhh ok that makes more sense. They probably tend to go to Madrid, Barcelona, Granada etc.
