Ibiza to Palma in about 35 minutes - the shortest sector we publish. The aeroplane is the easy part of this route; the Ibiza arrival slot and the overnight parking are what actually take the arranging. Whole aircraft and empty legs, 24/7.
REQUEST A QUOTE140 km between two Balearic islands, and a season of roughly ten weeks that decides everything about the route. EBAA counted 17,504 business-aviation movements at Palma in 2023 and 14,383 at Ibiza. On a hop this short the flying is almost a rounding error against the ground time, which is why we treat it as a ground problem first and a flight second.
Two islands, two completely different airports. Palma handles package holidays at industrial scale, and a business jet is a small item on a very long list there. Ibiza is small, and for about ten weeks a year it is asked to handle a great deal more than it was built around.
| Airport | Codes | Distance | Suits you if |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ibiza | IBZ / LEIB | 140 km | The arrival, and the whole difficulty of the route. Through the season the arrival slot and the overnight stand are rationed; the aeroplane never is. Tell us your arrival time and we will confirm the handling window. |
| Palma de Mallorca | PMI / LEPA | arrival | The departure. In August the taxi and the departure slot are the variable rather than the aircraft, and an early morning departure is worth far more to you than a fast aeroplane. |
| Menorca | MAH / LEMH | arrival alternative | You are starting from Menorca instead. A smaller field with fewer stands, where the aircraft normally has to be positioned in rather than found on the spot. |

At 140 km this is by far the shortest sector we publish - about 35 minutes, a good part of which is climbing and then descending again. Every light jet below does it without thinking about it. The only genuine aircraft question is luggage, because a group going to Ibiza for a week is not travelling light.
More aeroplane than 140 km needs, which is rather the point: it is the type most likely to be sitting in the Balearics already in July, so you are not paying to fly one in from the mainland.
See the Phenom 300 ›A small light jet that suits a short island hop with hand luggage. The economical answer when the party is small and the trip is out and back in the day.
See the Citation CJ2 ›The value option on the sector. Over 35 minutes nothing about cruise speed matters at all, so the sensible choice is whichever suitable aircraft is already on the islands.
See the Citation Bravo ›All three types are on our own fleet pages. A larger cabin is available if the luggage rather than the distance calls for one.

There is no honest published price for a 35-minute island hop, because on a sector this short almost none of the cost is the flying. What you are buying is an aircraft and a crew for a slot in their day, plus the landing, the handling and, in season, the parking at the far end.
Do not price this route from an hourly rate. The published class rates - EUR 4,600 to 7,300 per hour from a broker, from EUR 2,900 per hour from a broker, USD 3,750 to 4,200 per hour from a broker, all retrieved in 2026 - are for European light jets in general. Multiply any of them by 35 minutes and you get a number that no operator will fly for. Every charter carries a minimum charge, and on a sector this short the minimum charge is simply what you meet.
The variables that do move the price are whether a suitable aircraft is already on the islands, whether it has to wait for you at Ibiza or can be released, and the week you are asking about. In the first half of August, an aircraft positioned from the mainland to perform a 35-minute hop makes for unattractive arithmetic, and we would rather say so than dress it up. Send us the dates and we will tell you what it really looks like.
Ten weeks. That is honestly the whole story of this route. Outside June to September there is very little private traffic between Ibiza and Mallorca, and inside it there is a good deal more than the smaller of the two islands can comfortably take.
| Period | What happens | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| June to September | The season, and effectively the only season. Ibiza is full, Palma is running at holiday-charter volume, and every operator in the western Mediterranean is working the same ten weeks. | Book as far ahead as you can and give us your arrival time, not just the date. The slot is the thing that gets confirmed last. |
| The first half of August | The tightest fortnight of the year in the Balearics. Overnight parking at Ibiza is the scarcest item of all, and aircraft routinely set down and reposition rather than stay. | Expect the quotation to include a repositioning leg. Ask us early whether the aircraft can remain on the island, because the answer changes the price. |
| May and October | The shoulder. The islands are open, both airports are calm, and the same flight becomes an entirely straightforward piece of work. | Short notice is fine. This is the cheapest and easiest time of year to fly between the two islands. |
| November to April | Almost nothing. The ferries and the scheduled airlines cover what little demand there is, and the charter fleet has left the islands. | Perfectly possible, but the aircraft will usually be positioned in. Ask about combining it with a mainland leg so the positioning is not wasted. |
Nobody flies to Ibiza in order to sit at the airport. Formentera has no airport of its own, and the mainland is a short leg on the same aircraft when the trip carries on.
