    London to Ibiza by Private Jet: Cost, Flight Time and How to Share It

    Ibiza is one of the busiest private jet routes in Europe. From late May to early October, flights leave London every day for Ibiza. Many of them carry only two or three passengers in a jet built for six or eight. JetMatch helps you find other travellers on the same route, so you can charter the jet together and split the cost.

    Flight time and airports

    A direct private flight from London to Ibiza takes around 2 hours 10 minutes in a light or midsize jet, and about 2 hours 45 minutes in a turboprop. In London you can fly from Farnborough, Biggin Hill, Luton or Stansted. Farnborough and Biggin Hill are private aviation only, so check-in takes minutes rather than hours. Ibiza Airport (IBZ) has a dedicated business aviation terminal about 6 km from Ibiza Town.

    What a whole charter costs

    Indicative one-way prices for the whole aircraft (autumn 2026 market rates, before peak-season surcharges): turboprop from about £8,750, very light jet from about £11,000, light jet from about £13,250, super light jet from about £16,500, midsize jet from about £19,500. August weekends and the opening and closing parties are the most expensive dates. Expect higher prices and fewer available aircraft then, so book early.

    Your share when you split a charter

    A light jet seats around six. If six travellers split a £13,250 charter, each pays about £2,200. A midsize jet seats around eight, so a £19,500 charter split eight ways is about £2,440 each. Compare that with a last-minute business class ticket in August, and you get door-to-terminal in minutes, a bigger luggage allowance and your own schedule.

    Best times to share this route

    Thursday and Friday departures to Ibiza, and Sunday and Monday returns, have the most travellers going the same way. Those are the easiest dates to match. Opening parties in late May and early June and closing parties in late September and early October also fill quickly.

    FAQ

    Can I bring extra luggage?

    Usually yes, within the aircraft's hold limits. Agree on bags with your group before booking.

    Do I need a passport?

    Yes. The UK is outside Schengen, so passport control applies on both ends.

    Is it cheaper to fly back on an empty leg?

    Sometimes. Jets that drop passengers in Ibiza often fly back to London empty, so ask the operator.
