Flight EW6840, operated by the German airline Eurowings, is one of the busiest routes from Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) to the popular holiday hub of Palma de Mallorca (PMI). Whether for a summer vacation, an extended weekend, or a business trip, this flight – lasting just under two hours – transports thousands of passengers to the Balearic island every week. To ensure your journey gets off to a completely relaxed start, we have compiled all the essential details regarding this flight, including seat configurations, carry-on baggage allowances, and fare options.
The aircraft: The Airbus A320 family in service
For flight EW6840, Eurowings typically deploys short- and medium-haul aircraft from the proven Airbus A320 family (often the A320-200 or the more modern A320neo). The cabin features an all-economy configuration with seats arranged in a 3-3 layout. There is no separate business-class section with dedicated premium seating on this short-haul route; however, passengers booked under the BIZclass fare are guaranteed an empty middle seat, providing extra personal space.
The best seats for flight EW6840
- More legroom: If you are looking for extra legroom during the two-hour flight, you should reserve seats in rows 11 and 12 (emergency exit / overwing exit) when booking online. Please note that, for safety reasons, no carry-on baggage may be stowed on the floor in these rows.
- Quick disembarkation: Rows 1 to 4 are ideal for travelers who do not want to waste any time after landing in Palma de Mallorca, as passengers in these rows typically exit the aircraft via the front boarding bridge or stairs.
Strikte Handgepäck-Regeln bei Eurowings
For holiday flights to Mallorca in particular, Eurowings strictly enforces baggage limits at the gate in Düsseldorf. The basic fare (BASIC) includes only one small piece of carry-on baggage (40 x 30 x 25 cm), which must fit entirely under the seat in front of you. Passengers wishing to bring a larger piece of carry-on baggage (55 x 40 x 23 cm, max. 8 kg) for the overhead bin must either select the SMART fare or purchase this option for an additional fee. We strongly advise ensuring that your baggage adheres precisely to these dimensions in advance to avoid costly charges at the gate.
Catering and onboard service on the flight to Mallorca
As flight EW6840 is a typical short-haul service, the onboard offering from Eurowings is based entirely on the “Wings Bistro” concept. Complimentary snacks and drinks are no longer provided with standard fares (BASIC and SMART). However, passengers can purchase cold and hot beverages, sandwiches, and sweet or savory snacks directly from the cabin crew on board. A helpful tip: passengers traveling with the premium BIZclass fare receive complimentary, curated premium catering and drinks from the menu throughout the entire flight.
