Ibiza to Amsterdam is 1,517 km and about 2 h 20 in the air, normally a midsize jet, both ends inside Schengen. Indicative price from €10 500 for the whole aircraft, one way. This is the rare sector with a slot conversation at both ends – a crowded island apron at one, a heavily slot-coordinated hub at the other. Tell us the hours and we will settle both before anything else. +357 95 119759, any hour.
Two hours and twenty minutes north, from the Mediterranean summer to the Randstad. Nothing about the flying is demanding; everything worth planning is on the ground at either end, and the two ends are difficult in completely different ways. Whole aircraft, single seats and empty legs, arranged 24/7.
REQUEST A QUOTETwo constrained airports and an easy flight between them. Ibiza has one runway shared all summer with very heavy scheduled traffic, and 14,383 business-aviation movements in 2023 on an island of 570 square kilometres; private handling is separate, the slot and the apron are shared. Schiphol counted 14,508 business-aviation movements in the same year, keeps a general-aviation terminal away from the airline piers, and is heavily slot coordinated – the arrival window is booked rather than chosen.
One departure and four possible arrivals, and here the alternatives are not consolation prizes. The Netherlands is small and well supplied with fields; for a great many Dutch addresses the hub is simply the wrong answer.
| Airport | Codes | Distance | Suits you if |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ibiza | IBZ / LEIB | 1,517 km | Where the sector starts, and the field every figure on this page is measured from. One runway, shared through the summer with very heavy scheduled traffic. Business aviation has its own handling; the runway slot and the ramp parking are shared, and in the peak weeks they decide the departure hour. |
| Amsterdam Schiphol | AMS / EHAM | arrival | The default, about fifteen kilometres from the city, with business aviation handled at its own general aviation terminal. It is a heavily slot-coordinated airport, so we book the arrival window and the handling together rather than assuming an hour is free. |
| Rotterdam The Hague | RTM / EHRD | arrival alternative | About sixty kilometres south of Amsterdam and the most useful alternative on this sector. A far quieter environment for a business jet, frequently easier at short notice, and for Rotterdam, The Hague and the southern Randstad it is quicker door to door than the hub. |
| Lelystad or Eindhoven | LEY / EHLE, EIN / EHEH | elsewhere in the Netherlands | Lelystad sits east of Amsterdam and Eindhoven well to the south. Both handle general aviation, and either can make sense for a particular party or a particular aircraft – ask us rather than assume. |

Fifteen hundred kilometres with a full cabin is midsize work. A light jet will do it with fewer people aboard, and we will say so plainly rather than quote something that technically fits and then ask you to travel light.
The default. Seven to nine passengers, the luggage a summer stay generates, non-stop, and a cabin that makes two hours and twenty minutes a comfortable afternoon rather than a wait.
See the fleet ›Sensible for a small party travelling light, and a real saving when it fits. It is also the easiest category to place on a crowded island apron in August, which occasionally decides the matter on its own.
See the fleet ›For a larger group, for bulky equipment, or when the day continues past Amsterdam. More cabin and more margin if the routing goes long around weather over the Alps or the Bay of Biscay.
See the fleet ›Indicative price from €10 500 for the whole aircraft, one way – a floor for a sensible aircraft on an ordinary day, not a quotation for a Sunday in August.
The cabin moves it most at this distance. After that come the two ends: positioning, because the aircraft has to reach a busy island and go somewhere useful afterwards, and handling, parking and slots. This is one of the few sectors where the slot conversation happens twice – once for the departure out of Ibiza and once for the arrival into Schiphol – and where an hour that suits one end can be unavailable at the other.
Where the total comes down: a return booked as one trip, and empty legs. Northbound out of the Balearics at the end of the season is one of the more productive corridors in Europe for those, because aircraft that spent the summer working the islands go home.
GET A FIRM PRICEJune to September is the season at the island end. The Dutch end runs on a business calendar, so the two overlap awkwardly: August is the quietest month in Amsterdam and the busiest on Ibiza.
Book early whenever either hour is fixed, and expect us to ask about both. The island slot and the Schiphol arrival window are separate negotiations, and securing one without the other is how a plan quietly falls apart. Book earlier still around the major Amsterdam conference dates, when handling at the Dutch end fills before the aircraft do.
Outside the season this is an ordinary two-hour sector and short notice is comfortable. If you can tell us the destination address rather than just «Amsterdam», we will often find you a quicker day at Rotterdam.
Amsterdam is frequently a stop rather than an end, and the second leg is easier arranged at the same time as the first.
The return crossing, and the half most parties book at the same time. Booking both together usually costs less than two one-way flights and secures the island slot in advance.
Amsterdam to Ibiza ›South to the Côte d'Azur, and the usual shape when the summer continues somewhere else rather than ending in the Netherlands.
Amsterdam to Nice ›A short business hop, easy to add to the same booking, and a common second leg when the island stay was the first half of a longer trip.
Amsterdam to Zurich ›Tell us your dates and how many of you there are. Your dedicated flight advisor will come back with aircraft options and a firm price.
