Which aircraft for Edinburgh–Mallorca?

EDI ⇄ PMI: Compare suitable private jets for EDI–PMI by range, seats, cabin, baggage and pet requirements.

Aircraft category for EDI → PMI

For roughly 1880 kilometres, a Light oder Midsize Jet is usually a sensible starting point. Phenom 300E / Citation XLS+ illustrate the category, not a promise of a particular model. Day-of-flight range, passenger number and baggage determine the final choice.

Planning the EDI → PMI route

The direct distance between Edinburgh, United Kingdom, and Palma de Mallorca (PMI) is around 1880 kilometres. We use approximately 3:15 hours as a planning time. Weather, slots, routing and aircraft performance can change it. Depending on your location, Manchester (MAN), Birmingham (BHX), London-Luton (LTN) may be worth comparing.

What does the flight cost?

A sensible preliminary budget for the whole aircraft is EUR 13’000 to 21’500. This is not a bookable quote. Aircraft positioning, airport fees, season, de-icing, crew nights and short-notice availability affect the final price. A return flight with waiting time is calculated separately.

Which aircraft may fit?

A Light oder Midsize Jet is often suitable. Examples include Phenom 300E / Citation XLS+; the exact aircraft is subject to operator confirmation. A typical configuration carries about 6–9 passengers. Numerous suitcases, golf bags, a buggy or a large dog may require a larger baggage door or cabin.

Match the aircraft to the trip

• 1–4 travellers: a very light or light jet may be efficient.
• 5–8 travellers: verify layout, actual payload and baggage space.
• Dog or cat: confirm cabin approval and protective covering.
• Golf or bulky items: send dimensions and bag counts in advance.

A bigger jet is not automatically better: it brings space but often increases positioning and airport charges.
