Palma de Mallorca is the capital of the Balearic Islands and the archipelago's largest city. Its marinas host one of the densest superyacht fleets in the Mediterranean from May to October, and its airport is among Europe's busiest in summer.
With Private Jets Connect, access private flights to and from Palma de Mallorca (PMI/LEPA), with a dedicated general aviation terminal,…
All aircraft categories can land in Palma, from turboprops to long-range jets. Here are the three most common scenarios and the aircraft best suited for them. Any aircraft on the market can be chartered; your agent will adapt to your specific requirements.
Barcelona 40 min · Madrid 1 h 10 · Valencia 50 min
For these distances, a turboprop or a light jet is the natural choice. Note for summer: aircraft with a cruising speed below 220 knots (approx. 407 km/h) cannot use the airport between 5:30 AM and 7:00 AM, or between 4:00 PM and 6:30 PM, from May 1st to October 31st. Most modern turboprops exceed this threshold, but the chosen aircraft must be verified. Outside of restrictive slots, anything works.
Excellent value for money. Access to short runways and secondary airports. Highly reliable and versatile.
Jet speed for the price of a turboprop. Pressurised cabin, high-altitude flight. Maximum efficiency.
Paris 2 h · Geneva 1 h 40 · London 2 h 15 · Milan 1 h 45
The most common scenario: a week or a long weekend from France, Switzerland, Italy, or the UK. A light jet comfortably accommodates up to six passengers with a week's luggage. A midsize jet offers stand-up cabin height and a more generous baggage hold for groups staying longer. Both are seen daily on Palma's tarmac.
Ideal balance between capacity, comfort and cost. Stand-up spacious cabin. Private lavatory.
Premium comfort with spacious cabin. High cruising speed. Perfect for European crossings.
Dubai 6 h 30 · New York, or up to 19 passengers to Mallorca
Heavy jets and ultra-long-range aircraft, such as the Challenger 650, Falcon 8X, Gulfstream G650, and Global 6000, land in Palma all year round. There are no runway constraints: the main runway is 3,270 meters long. In summer, a large aircraft may be denied extended parking and might have to depart to wait elsewhere after dropping off passengers. This is anticipated and factored into the quote from the outset.
Wide flat-floor cabin. Transatlantic range (with short stop). High speed. High-speed Wi-Fi.
Lounge space with separate zones. Convertible beds. Full galley. Intercontinental range.
The pinnacle of aerial luxury. Direct flight to any worldwide destination. Private suite, shower, onboard chef available.

An empty leg to or from Palma is a repositioning flight already on the schedule: the aircraft needs to reach another base or its next mission. These trips are offered at a reduced fare, often around 30% to 75% off a classic charter, in exchange for less flexibility on dates and routing.
On every enquiry, we systematically scan the sky for these opportunities. The goal: whenever possible, a more competitive quote, on price as well as on the aircraft category available.
Palma is a Mediterranean island with a distinct seasonal calendar. The airport recorded 33.8 million passengers in 2025, with a sharp concentration from May to September. For business aviation, three periods particularly strain demand: the Palma International Boat Show in late April (opening of the Mediterranean yachting season), the Superyacht Cup in late June, and the Copa del Rey in early August. During these weeks, slots are requested as soon as the 15-day window opens, and flight prices reflect the competition.
The size of the aircraft changes the equation in summer. Midsize or light jets (under 20 meters) rarely pose parking problems. For larger aircraft, the airport may impose a departure within 3 hours, a “drop & go”: the aircraft drops off passengers, refuels, then departs to wait at a continental airport. This repositioning flight adds to the total cost and is planned for in the quote.
Off-season, from November to March, the situation changes completely. Slots are confirmed quickly, parking is no longer an issue, and prices reflect significantly calmer demand. This is also the best time to explore the island without crowds and to benefit from more accessible positioning flights.
From the very first contact, by email, WhatsApp or phone, as you prefer, a dedicated agent takes the controls. They scan the entire sky, compare available aircraft and negotiate with operators to secure the best jet at the best price. One voice, one face: the same person watches over your flight, from take-off to landing.
Palma Airport is 8 km east of the city center. Two parallel runways: 3,270 m and 3,000 m, at an elevation of 8 m. They accommodate all private jets, from turboprops to ultra-long-range aircraft. The private terminal is separate from commercial flights. Three companies handle aircraft there: Aviapartner (AviaVIP), Mallorcair, and Sky Valet. One of them is mandatory for each flight. The airport is open 24/7, including customs.
From April to September, the arrival time is not confirmed until the airport has approved it. The request can only be submitted 15 days in advance. In mid-summer, a large aircraft does not stay on the ground for weeks.
Upon Your Arrival
The aircraft parks in front of the private terminal, away from commercial flights. Someone from Aviapartner, Mallorcair, or Sky Valet will be waiting for you at the gate. Passport control and customs are handled in this building, in a few minutes. The car can drive up to the aircraft.
For a villa in the Serra de Tramuntana or in the north of the island, a helicopter scheduled for the actual landing time reduces the journey to less than 20 minutes.
At the general aviation terminal, the car drives directly onto the tarmac. Palma city center is 15 to 25 minutes away depending on traffic. For properties in the Serra de Tramuntana or the north of the island, a helicopter significantly reduces travel time.
Mountain villages like Deià or Sóller are 45 to 60 minutes of winding road from the airport. A helicopter reduces this to less than 20 minutes, timed to your actual landing time. The north of the island, around Cap de Formentor or Alcúdia, is also accessible in 25 to 30 minutes by air.

The chauffeur waits on the general aviation side, not at the commercial terminal's drop-off. Palma city center and the old port are about 15 minutes away. Paseo Marítimo and the marinas are 20 minutes away. Southwestern villages, like Port d'Andratx, are 30 to 40 minutes without traffic.
Dedicated chauffeur · Premium vehicle · Available 24/7
Arrange this transferThe request specifies the aircraft registration, type, length, and wingspan. Until the airport confirms, the flight is not scheduled. The window opens 15 days before. You must be there as soon as it opens, and keep another airport as a backup.
From June 1st to September 30th, an aircraft with a wingspan of more than 20 m can only park for 7 days, unless otherwise agreed in writing. If the area is full, the airport may limit the stay to 3 hours: passengers are dropped off, the aircraft is refueled, and then it waits on the mainland. A crew member remains on board until departure. This positioning flight is included in the quote.
From May 1st to October 31st, an aircraft cruising at less than 220 knots (approximately 407 km/h) cannot use the airport between 5:30 AM and 7:00 AM, nor between 4:00 PM and 6:30 PM, in Universal Time. In summer, this corresponds to 7:30 AM-9:00 AM and 6:00 PM-8:30 PM, local time. State, medical, and emergency flights are not affected. Most private jets fly faster. We still check the speed of the selected aircraft.
No queues, no protocol, no compromise. Your flight adapts to you: your schedule, your wishes, your pace. You are at the centre of every detail.
Book your flight
In Spain, the onboard dining experience echoes local flavors. From the finesse of Bellota Iberian ham to the richness of a Rioja Grand Cru, each dish is elevated by a dedicated chef and an exceptional cellar, for a bespoke gastronomic experience.
Compose my menuPalma is the headquarters for luxury yachting in the Mediterranean. Every spring and summer, the city hosts the region’s largest regattas and one of Europe’s most influential boat shows.
Private flights to Palma closely follow this calendar: slots and parking become tight around each major event, then ease between them. For those coming for yachting, and for those simply enjoying the island, these dates have a direct operational impact on pricing and confirmation times.
A private jet does not exempt you from formalities. In Palma, passport or ID checks are done in the general aviation terminal, not the commercial terminal. Spain is part of the Schengen Area.
EU citizens travel with their ID card; others with a passport, and a visa if their nationality requires it. Customs is on-site, H24. Flight regulations fall under AESA, the Spanish air safety authority.
Palma packs a lot into a few square kilometers: La Seu Cathedral borders the sea, the Royal Palace of La Almudaina faces it, and the Santa Catalina district brings together the island’s best restaurants. In summer, the city’s life begins after 9 PM.
To the west of the capital, the villages of the Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage site, offer a counterpoint to the coast. Valldemossa, Deià, Sóller: winding roads, ancient olive trees, stone houses. Go in the morning, before the tourists.
Palma’s marinas host a fleet of superyachts from May to October. For sailing enthusiasts, Palma Bay is one of the most active regatta areas in the Mediterranean. For golfers, several courses are less than twenty minutes from the airport.

Yes. From April 1st to September 30th, all general or business aviation flights must obtain confirmed coordination before landing. The request includes registration, aircraft type, length, and wingspan. The window opens 15 days before arrival: submit on the first day, and always plan a backup airport if the slot is denied. Off-season, there are no such constraints.
For an aircraft under 20 meters, generally yes, subject to apron availability. For larger aircraft (Challenger, Global, Gulfstream), the rule is a maximum of 7 days on the general aviation apron, from June 1st to September 30th, unless expressly authorized by the airport. If the apron is saturated upon arrival, the airport may impose a departure within 3 hours. This scenario is anticipated in the quote.
LEPA has two parallel asphalt runways: 3,270 meters for the main (06L/24R) and 3,000 meters for the secondary (06R/24L). There are no length constraints for private jets, including wide-body aircraft. The challenge in summer is not the runway, but parking and slots. From May 1st to October 31st, aircraft with a cruising speed below 220 knots have restricted time windows in the morning and afternoon, but most modern private jets are not affected.
The airport is 8 km east of the center. Allow 15 to 25 minutes depending on traffic. The car drives directly onto the tarmac of the general aviation terminal, bypassing commercial terminal queues. Paseo Marítimo and the marinas are about 20 minutes away during peak hours.
Mountain villages like Deià, Sóller, or Valldemossa are 45 to 60 minutes of winding road from the airport. A helicopter reduces this to less than 20 minutes, timed to your actual landing time rather than the scheduled one. We coordinate the transfer as soon as the flight is booked.
Yes. Aviapartner (AviaVIP) operates H24. Mallorcair is also available 24/7. The general aviation terminal is separate from the commercial terminal. Customs is available H24. For night arrivals, prior coordination with the chosen handler is recommended.
