Ibiza Director of Tourism Hoping For Direct Flights from US

Ibiza has surged in popularity in recent years. Thanks to its stunning scenery and renowned lineup of world-class clubs, it is one of Europe’s most popular summer destinations. Now, the island’s Director of Tourism is working to make travel to the region easier for American visitors.

Juan Miguel Costa, who has overseen Ibiza’s recent tourism boom, believes it’s time for travelers from the United States to have a more direct route to the island. Currently, Americans must make a stopover in Europe before reaching Ibiza. But with record-breaking tourist numbers and soaring sales figures, officials see a direct connection as a strategic move to expand the island’s reach.

Preliminary plans are focused on major U.S. hubs like New York, Atlanta, and Miami as potential departure points for nonstop flights. While the initiative will take time to develop, Costa points to strong support from leading hotel brands as a sign of momentum. In addition, Ibiza is partnering with major travel platforms like Expedia and Booking.com to build attractive travel packages and secure broader support for the project.

Hï Ibiza continues to be voted the best club in the world. Black Coffee will open the season this year on May 17th. Next door to them, Ushuaïa Ibiza has brought in world-class DJs for years, hosting huge residencies including Martin Garrix, Calvin Harris, Armin van Buuren, Kygo, David Guetta, and many more!
