Ibiza’s private air traffic is concentrated in a short, busy season. A ‘empty leg’ flight refers to a journey made by an aircraft without passengers, which an operator may open up for booking. Each published offer specifies the date, the aircraft, the number of seats and the price, with no option to change the itinerary.

Paris–Ibiza by private jet: airports, distance and journey time

Distances and journey times are provided for guidance only. The airport, flight time and timetables depend on the published offer and operational conditions.

Airports on the route

Ibiza Airport is the island’s only air gateway and is very busy during the high season, which can put pressure on slot availability. In Paris, Le Bourget remains the main business airport. The quote always specifies the chosen airport.

For what sort of journeys?

The aircraft is used almost exclusively for private purposes: summer holidays, leisure flights and private events. Departures are mainly at weekends, but an empty leg does not follow this pattern: its date is that of the published repositioning flight.

Seasonality and availability

The route operates from late spring to early autumn. Outside this period, services become infrequent and it is unlikely that any will be available — although this cannot be ruled out.

Why are there empty legs between Paris and Ibiza?

In business aviation, a jet does not necessarily remain in the city where it drops off its passengers. It may need to return to its base, another airport or the departure point for its next flight. When it makes this journey without passengers, it is known as an empty leg.

Unlike a traditional charter, the route, date and timetable for an empty leg are already set by the operator. Passengers therefore book an existing flight, with less flexibility. As a result, the price is lower than that of a bespoke charter. MarketJet brings together the offers published by its partner operators so that they can all be viewed in one place.

On the route from Paris to Ibiza

Flights to and from the island generate a large number of one-way journeys on any given date, leaving aircraft to be moved without passengers. These flights may be offered for booking both to Ibiza and from the island. Their dates and directions remain unpredictable.

Your questions about this route

How long does a private jet flight from Paris to Ibiza take?

Approximately 1 h 50 for 1130 km. This is an indicative estimate, which may vary depending on the aircraft and the number of visitors to the island.

Are there any empty legs to Ibiza in the middle of August?

The peak season brings a lot of activity, but also a lot of demand. We do not announce availability in advance: only the offers displayed on this page are available.

Ibiza or Palma for the Balearic Islands?

These are two separate islands and two separate routes, each with their own offers. Please also see the Paris – Palma de Mallorca page if your destination is Mallorca.

Can an empty leg be booked in both directions?

Each direction is published separately. An empty leg is a one-way flight: the presence of an offer in one direction does not mean there is one in the other, nor on the date that suits you.

Does the price cover the whole aircraft or just one seat?

On an empty leg, the price shown is for the flight itself, subject to the number of seats specified in the offer; passenger taxes are added to this depending on the number of travellers. Shared flights, on the other hand, are booked seat by seat.

Why are there no flights available at the moment?

This is because no operator has published a repositioning on this route at the moment. Offers appear according to operators’ needs and are withdrawn as soon as they are booked: an alert remains the most reliable way to be notified.
