Announcing the inaugural flight, Penny Coates, managing director of East Midlands Airport commented that she was "delighted" with the commencement of the service, adding that she felt confident Palma would be a "popular destination".
She suggested that the region offers something for everyone.
"Palma is a favourite destination for families looking to explore the island of Mallorca, as well as a popular city break destination," David Osborne, easyJet UK General Manager, commented.
