The leg home from the island: about 2 h 10 in a midsize jet over 1,391 km, landing at whichever of the three London business-aviation fields is nearest your address. Whole-aircraft charter, single seats and empty legs, arranged 24/7.
REQUEST A QUOTEThis is a family and property route rather than a corporate one, and on the way north it is usually the second half of a trip that was bought in two pieces. Palma recorded 17,504 business-aviation movements in 2023 and Luton 26,661, both inside the EBAA top fifty, so the aircraft exist - what is difficult on this pair is the ground. Leaving Mallorca that means a slot and a handling window at one of the largest holiday airports in Europe; arriving in London it means a border, because this is a crossing into a country outside the European Union and outside the Schengen area.
The departure is fixed: one island airport, and a queue you share with a great deal of package traffic. The decision on this page is where you land. All three London fields are business-aviation airports with their own terminals, the flight time between them differs by a few minutes, and the thing that should choose between them is the road at the far side and the hour you arrive.
| Airport | Codes | Distance | Suits you if |
|---|---|---|---|
| Palma de Mallorca | PMI / LEPA | 1,391 km | Where you start, and one of the largest holiday airports in Europe. In August a business jet takes its turn alongside the package traffic, so the departure hour is worth agreeing with us in advance rather than assuming it. |
| London Luton | LTN / EGGW | arrival | Land here if you are heading north or west of the city. It is the busiest business-aviation field in the United Kingdom, which also means it has the widest choice of aircraft on the day - the reason most late August bookings in this direction end up flying into or out of it. |
| Farnborough | FAB / EGLF | arrival alternative | Land here for Surrey, Hampshire or west London. It handles business aviation only, with no scheduled traffic at all, so nothing on the field is competing with you for the arrival window or the turn afterwards. |
| London Biggin Hill | BQH / EGKB | arrival alternative | Land here for south or south-east London, Kent, or if you are going straight into the City. It is also marginally the closest of the three to Palma in a straight line, though the difference in the air is smaller than the difference on the road. |

1,391 km, or 751 nautical miles, is a midsize sector. Two hours ten is long enough for a stand-up cabin and a proper lavatory to earn their place, and coming home from a fortnight the hold decides the aircraft more often than the seat count does - people rarely go back with less than they took out.
The most common midsize cabin on the Balearics to UK run: stand-up height, a decent hold, and enough of them based in the south of England that one can usually be found at short notice for the leg home.
See the Citation XLS+ ›A wider cabin with a full galley and a separate lavatory. The one to ask for when the party is large, the stay has been long, or a summer's worth of luggage is coming back with you.
See the Hawker 800XP ›The newest of the three, with a flat floor and a quieter cabin - which is worth more than it sounds on a two-hour evening sector with tired children on board. Ask about it when comfort rather than price is deciding.
See the Citation Latitude ›Each of the three has a page of its own in our fleet. A heavier cabin is arranged on this sector when the group needs one.

"Private jet cost Palma to London" is one of the things people actually type into a search box before they call, so it deserves a straight answer: there is no fixed price, and any site that shows you one is quoting an example rather than your flight. What the number is made of is set out below.
Four things move it, and on the leg home the first two behave differently from the way out. Positioning comes first: this direction is frequently flown by an aircraft that brought somebody out and is due back in the south of England anyway, which is the cheap version - the expensive version is a jet flown down empty to collect you. Second, whether the aircraft waited. On a one-week family trip it will not have done; it dropped its passengers and left, and this flight is the second one you are buying rather than the back half of the first. Third, the date, and here the northbound peak is its own event: the last weekend of the school holidays is when everybody on the island wants to go home at once, and a Tuesday in June is close to the cheapest thing on this route.
Fourth, the size of cabin. There are published hourly references for midsize jets in Europe to check any quotation against: EUR 8,400-12,900 per hour from one set of brokers, from EUR 4,500 per hour in another (19.02.2026), and USD 4,700-5,500 per hour in a third (August 2026). Each is a rate for the category rather than a price for this sector, and none of them covers the Spanish and UK landing and handling charges, the customs and immigration arrangements at both ends, or overnight parking.
Mallorca has one long season with a very sharp peak inside it, and read from the going-home end the peak sits at the finish of the school holidays, when the whole of northern Europe wants to leave the same island on the same Saturday.
| Period | What happens | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| May | The island is open, the weather has turned and the airport is still calm. Owners come out to open houses for the summer, so the northbound legs at this time of year are often the empty half of somebody else's trip. | The easiest month of the season. A week or two of notice is usually plenty, and it is the best month to ask what the aircraft is doing before it collects you. |
| June to September | The Mediterranean season proper. Palma is handling holiday traffic at volume, and on a Saturday morning a business jet is a small aircraft in a very large queue - which on a departure is felt as a slot rather than as a delay. | Two to three weeks out for a weekend. Ask us to look at a weekday departure instead; the saving in both time and money is real. |
| August | The tightest weeks, and the end of them is the tightest of all. Slots and handling windows are what run out rather than aircraft, and a party that arrives late at the terminal can lose a slot rather than just an hour. | Six to eight weeks out for the last fortnight of the month. Give us a firm departure hour, and tell us if your day is movable by one - it is often worth a great deal. |
| October to April | The island empties and the fleet repositions north towards the UK and the Alps for the winter, which means the repositioning traffic runs in your direction. Owners still come back and forth for long weekends and to deal with the house. | The best window in the year for an empty leg going north. Give us a flexible week and we will watch the repositioning traffic for you. |
London is where this leg ends, and for a fair number of parties it is a staging point rather than the end of the journey. If the aircraft is to carry on, or if part of the group is going somewhere else, say so at the enquiry rather than on the day.
