The interurban bus service will improve connections with the north of Mallorca from April 1st with the launch of new summer timetables. This extension will especially benefit Pollença and the Bay of Alcúdía, according to the Balearic Government.

Lines 301 (Port de Pollença-Palma) and 302 (Can Picafort-Palma) will increase their offer compared to last year, especially in the early hours of the morning, to facilitate the travel of workers who use public transport.

Line 301 Port de Pollença-Palma will strengthen the service, with three additional trips to Palma and four to Port de Pollença. In addition, the first two morning departures, which until now only operated from Monday to Friday during the winter, will become daily from April 1.
...
These improvements have been implemented thanks to the modifications made to the TIB service concession contracts, adapted to the increase in the number of users, which increased by 20% during 2024.

The problem is that it is not possible to use the 301, in summer, to go to Pollensa, but there is no real increase in the frequency of the 322 to compensate for this

Looking at the website, isn't there a lot more trips on the 322 summer timetable, starting on 1 April, as well as a few more 321 trips?

They've not increased the number of buses from last summer. The 322 does run pretty regular (and the 321 if you fancy a trip). They have stopped the 301 from disembarking in Pollença because they are packed, particularly in a morning (this was also case last year). But they have not put any extra 301's on. Seen numerous time where people in Pollença have not been able to board because it's too full and it's an hour for the next one!

Compared to winter, yes. The problem is that by the time the bus from Alcudia gets to Llenaire, it is often full, and the same going the other way, meaning that people living and staying in that area of the port cannot access the buses. They should also run the 321 out to Llenaire
