Private Jet Geneva Ibiza: 1h40 Flight to the Balearics
Geneva to Ibiza in 1h40, €15,000 in a Phenom 300 for example
A private jet from Geneva to Ibiza takes about 1h40, and a one-way flight costs, for example, €15,000 in a 7-seat Phenom 300, whichever direction you fly. A group of 8 moves up to a midsize such as the Citation XLS, from €4,800 per hour; a group of 10 to a heavy jet such as the Falcon 2000, from €6,500 per hour. The aircraft leaves Geneva (GVA) and lands at Ibiza (IBZ / LEIB), 7 km south-west of the town. From 1 May to 15 October, parking on the island is what decides the plan: above an 18 m wingspan and a three-hour stop, the stand must be booked before the slot. Our Geneva office handles both at once: get your Ibiza quote, answered within the hour.
Friday evening out, Sunday back before Geneva's night rules
Until 31 October, Ibiza is open around the clock to instrument flights, according to the Spanish AIP. The evening limit therefore sits in Geneva. Under Swiss federal rules, a commercial take-off there remains possible between 22:00 and midnight if the aircraft meets a noise index of 96, and none is allowed until 06:00.
Leave Lake Geneva at 20:30 and you land in Ibiza at around 22:10, with no time difference. Coming home, a take-off from Ibiza at around 20:00 reaches Geneva at about 21:40, ahead of the night regime. Our Geneva private jet charter desk checks the aircraft's noise index whenever a departure slips past 22:00.
Departure and arrival airports
Just over 900 km separate the two runways.
- Geneva (GVA / LSGG): a 3,900 m runway, prior permission (PPR) requested by the ground handler, at the earliest 5 days before the flight
- Ibiza (IBZ / LEIB): runway 06/24, 2,799 m long, mandatory ground handling for business aviation, customs during opening hours
- Ibiza from 1 November: open to instrument flights from 06:30 to 23:00 UTC, which is 07:30 to midnight local time, for the winter season
On the Swiss side, our guide to Geneva airport for private jets covers the business terminal and slots.
Arranging your Geneva to Ibiza flight with IBC Aviation
Geneva's booking window is short. Geneva Airport opens PPR reservations only 5 days before the flight, and only through the ground handler. For a late-July departure planned in spring, the aircraft and crew are held early and the Geneva slot is requested the day the window opens.
A PPR does not commit the airport to a parking stand, and an aircraft waiting more than 3 hours in Geneva needs its approval. So we decide with you, at the quote stage, whether the aircraft stays in Ibiza during your stay or flies home empty. Our Geneva office then files the requests: share your outbound and return dates, and we come back with an aircraft, a slot and a stand.
Ibiza in summer: an 18-metre wingspan changes the rules
The Ibiza AIP published by ENAIRE, in force since 9 July 2026, sets the rule. From 1 May to 15 October, any general aviation aircraft with a wingspan over 18 m staying longer than 3 hours must request its stand before the operation, and the slot request then needs the airport's parking approval.
The taxiways into the general aviation apron are limited to an 18 m wingspan. Anything larger parks on the commercial apron, where in season the airport may ask the operator to move the aircraft within 3 hours.
The slot itself is not optional. The AIP exempts only visual flights, and it does not allow jets to arrive or depart under visual rules: every private jet bound for Ibiza needs an airport slot.
Which private jet for Geneva to Ibiza
- Phenom 300, light jet: the aircraft in our example price, 7 passengers, a lavatory, and a 15.91 m wingspan according to its EASA type certificate, below the Ibiza threshold
- Falcon 2000, heavy jet: up to 10 passengers, from €6,500 per flight hour; a 21.38 m wingspan on the LXS version according to Dassault, so a stand to book in season
Between the two, our note on private jet categories and their range helps you choose by passenger count and luggage.
Private jet Geneva to Ibiza price: €15,000 in a Phenom 300, for example
The figure covers one way in a Phenom 300. Dates, aircraft availability and taxes set the quote. For a stay on the island, the return price depends on whether the aircraft waits for you or flies back to collect you, and we quote both. Our private jet rental costs list the other example prices from Geneva.
Empty legs to or from the Balearics
An aircraft that drops passengers in Ibiza sometimes has to return without them. These empty-leg flights are priced below the usual rate, provided you accept the date and time set by the operator.
Frequently asked questions

For example, a one-way flight costs €15,000 in a 7-seat Phenom 300, for about 1h40 in the air, in either direction. The final quote depends on dates, aircraft availability and taxes. A Falcon 2000, with up to ten seats, is priced from €6,500 per flight hour.

About 1h40, depending on winds, for just over 900 km. Both cities share the same time zone: a 20:30 departure from Geneva lands in Ibiza at around 22:10, and a take-off from Ibiza at about 20:00 is back in Geneva before 22:00.
