The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, an Airbus A350-900, then departed from runway 36L at Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport (LEMD). The takeoff distance was 2,136 meters, which accounted for 63% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 20 knots from a direction of 210°. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a tailwind of 17 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 2 miles south east of San Sebastian de los Reyes, climbing from an altitude of 2,972 feet above sea level to 30,234 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,261 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 95 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles north west of Cardenete and lasted for 16 minutes, covering a distance of 144 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 17 miles north of Cala de Portinatx, where the aircraft descended from an altitude of 30,368 feet above sea level to 1,333 feet above sea level, a decrease of 29,036 feet, in 20 minutes and covering a distance of 69 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 24L at Palma de Mallorca Airport (LEPA) was made from the north east, heading 239.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,308 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 24L, which had a length of 2,587 meters, was successful, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was well above the target at 144 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 411 meters, but the touchdown speed of 138 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate was fair at -265 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centreline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 22 knots from a direction of 249°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 22 knots. The total landing distance was 909 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 317 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 66 minutes. The aircraft used 6,844 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
