Private Jet
London to Ibiza
London to Ibiza is under two hours airborne and the busiest UK-to-Balearics private sector in summer. Slot coordination and the shortage of overnight parking shape the price more than the distance does.

Save this routeWhy this airport
Ibiza is close enough for a light jet, and the airport transfer is short compared with almost any other summer destination. That combination is why the sector is so heavily flown between June and September.
Slots, parking and operational restrictions
Ibiza is slot coordinated through the summer season and overnight parking is frequently unavailable in July and August. The usual plan is that the aircraft drops you, repositions empty to Palma, Valencia or the mainland, and returns to collect you. You pay for that repositioning, which is why a three-night August trip can cost more than the two sectors you actually sit on.
Alternative airports
Palma is the obvious overflow and repositioning airport, with a short hop across if the itinerary suits. Valencia and Alicante are the mainland fallbacks. For the north of the island the transfer from Ibiza airport is longer than most people expect.
Passengers and baggage
Summer trips run out of baggage volume long before weight. Eight passengers with a week of luggage will stretch a light jet's hold, and this is the sector where that arithmetic bites most often.
Onward transfer
Ibiza Town and the southern resorts are close to the airport. San Antonio and the north of the island are longer drives, and August traffic on the island roads is significant.
Road journey times vary with traffic, weather and season. We do not publish transfer times as promises.

Range is a planning figure, not a guarantee: payload, reserves, weather and airport restrictions all reduce usable range. Individual aircraft configurations vary and no particular airframe is guaranteed.
The pilot’s view
Everyone asks about the flight time and the answer is that the flight time barely matters — it is under two hours in almost anything. What matters is whether the aircraft can stay. Ask about that first, and if you can move a peak Friday to a Thursday you will notice the difference. Midweek Ibiza in August is a genuinely different price.
