Mobility councillor Rafael González thanked transport company Trasmapi for rescheduling the last journey out of Eivissa's port, Vila, which he said made the move “in response to the requests of islanders and the Council”. González described the retooled ferry service as “an improvement in terms of Formentera residents' mobility, not least for islanders that take the ferry for work, school or medical reasons, or to make connections through the airport”.

González also noted the service tweak means alignment with legislation known as the Llei de Transport Marítim ("Martime Transport Act", 11/2010) mandating transport options from Eivissa to Formentera at least until 9.30pm.
