Flights to Ibiza: UK Airports, Airlines and Flight Times

Your phone matters most in arrivals, when you need bus times and transfer details. An eSIM for Ibiza from HelloRoam installs on your phone at home and connects when you land, with 24/7 support if you need help.

Ryanair's times come from its summer 2027 timetable. Ibiza is one hour ahead of the UK all year, so Ryanair's 08:00 from Stansted on 1 July 2027 is due in at 11:35 local time. For other routes, East Midlands Airport gives 2 hours 45 minutes, and Google Flights gives 2 hours 20 minutes as the fastest non-stop time from London.

Every airline in the table, Ryanair included, flies to Ibiza Airport. Aena, which runs it, puts the airport 7.5 km from Ibiza Town. Ryanair also lists its Ibiza fares each way, so you can book the outbound and return flights separately, even with different airlines.

Ibiza's flight season and winter connections

Ryanair's timetable has no UK flights to Ibiza between 3 November 2026 and 27 March 2027. East Midlands and Manchester airports both describe Ibiza as a summer-only destination.

Winter is not empty, but direct flights are few. Google Flights still showed British Airways non-stop flights from London in January 2027. Iberia and Vueling sell connecting flights from Gatwick and Heathrow every day, and Ibiza Airport's route list includes flights from Madrid and Barcelona.

Summer 2027 is already on sale. Ryanair's timetable runs to the end of October 2027, so you can compare dates for next season now.

The cheapest month to fly to Ibiza from London and Manchester

Google Flights names April as typically the cheapest month to fly to Ibiza from both London and Manchester, and September as typically the most expensive. As of October 2026, its typical prices for the cheapest weekend return trips from London are £40 to £170 in April and £125 to £260 in September. From Manchester they are £60 to £200 in April and £145 to £260 in September. Google bases these figures on fares it saw over the last 12 months, and today's prices can differ.

To catch a drop, track the route on Google Flights. Choose 'Any dates' and it emails you when the route's lowest price falls significantly over a month.

What Ryanair and easyJet fares include

Every Ryanair fare includes one small bag of up to 40 x 30 x 20 cm, which must fit under the seat in front of you. A second cabin bag of up to 10kg and 55 x 40 x 20 cm comes with Priority & 2 Cabin Bags, which the Regular, Flexi Plus and Time Saver fares include.

Ryanair is strict on timing too. From 10 November 2026, its airport check-in and bag drop close 60 minutes before departure, up from 40 minutes. Its boarding gates close 30 minutes before departure, so be at the gate by then.

easyJet lets everyone bring one small under-seat bag of up to 45 x 36 x 20 cm for free. A large cabin bag of up to 56 x 45 x 25 cm has to be booked, unless your fare or easyJet Plus membership includes one.

Jet2, TUI and British Airways set their own allowances, so check what your fare includes before you pay. Compare the total with bags added, not the headline fare. If you plan to take only the small bag, a holiday packing list helps you cut down.

Spain's passport rule for UK travellers

As of October 2026, GOV.UK says a full British citizen passport must have been issued less than 10 years before the day you arrive in Spain. It must also expire at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave the Schengen area.

GOV.UK adds that British tourists can stay in the Schengen area, which includes Spain, for up to 90 days in any 180-day period without a visa. The EU's Entry/Exit System is being introduced, so you may be asked for fingerprints and a photo at the border, and checks can take longer.

Border officers may also ask for your return ticket, proof of travel insurance, enough money for your stay and where you are staying. Rules can change, so read GOV.UK's Spain entry requirements before you travel.

Getting from Ibiza Airport to your resort

Five airport bus lines link the terminal with Ibiza Town and the main resorts. Alsa runs them, and its timetables give these journey times:

For a taxi, use the signed rank at the terminal. Aena says 69 taxis serve the airport all year, rising to 139 from June to September.

Euros, cash machines and card payments

Ibiza uses the euro. Aena lists Euronet cash machines in the arrivals hall on floor 0 and in the boarding area on floor 1.

If a card machine offers to charge you in pounds, choose euros. HSBC UK says this option, called dynamic currency conversion, usually costs more, because the shop or its bank sets the exchange rate instead of Visa or Mastercard.

Mobile data in Ibiza on a UK phone

Since the UK left the EU, free roaming in Spain is no longer guaranteed, and GOV.UK advises checking your network's roaming terms before you travel. Ofcom, the UK communications regulator, says your network must send you a message when you arrive in another country to explain any roaming charges or usage limits, unless you have opted out. You can also set a monthly spend limit on your bill, and your network can only charge you more than that limit if you agree.

Each network sets its own terms. As of October 2026, O2's Europe Zone lets you use your UK allowance in Spain up to a roaming limit. Three and Vodafone include Spain on some plans, and on others you pay a daily charge or buy an add-on. Our guide to data roaming for UK travellers explains how those bills build up.

A prepaid HelloRoam eSIM for Spain uses the Orange and Movistar networks, and one plan covers Ibiza, Formentera, Mallorca, Menorca and mainland Spain. If your trip goes beyond the island, the data plans for Spain show the full range.

Set it up at home: first check your phone works with eSIM, then follow the eSIM setup steps. On a dual-SIM phone, your UK SIM can stay in for calls and texts while the eSIM handles data.

Ibiza Airport does have free Wi-Fi, called Airport Free Wifi Aena. It asks for your email address and gives you 15 minutes online to confirm it, after which there is no time limit.

A short checklist before you fly to Ibiza

• Passport: check its issue and expiry dates against Spain's passport rule above, and renew it if you need to, as GOV.UK advises.
• Health cover: GOV.UK says you need a GHIC or EHIC to get medically necessary state healthcare in Spain, and that the card is not an alternative to travel insurance.
• Bags: check your allowance and add any extra bag online. easyJet says a large cabin bag always costs less online than at the gate.
• Timing: on Ryanair, finish at the bag drop at least 60 minutes before departure and reach the gate at least 30 minutes before.
• Flight status: check your airline's app on the day you fly. Ryanair's app gives live updates on flight status, gate numbers and boarding.
• Phone and money: install your eSIM at home, and choose euros whenever a card machine offers pounds.
