Light Jet
The Eclipse 550 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 321 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €3,800
MOST POPULAR
Midsize
Midsize aircraft like the Cessna Citation VII are the workhorse of Palma de Mallorca–Olbia — they hit the sweet spot on cabin comfort, block time and cost that the majority of charterers pick.

On Palma de Mallorca → Olbia, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Palma de Mallorca before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Olbia, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on PMI–OLB are set field by field — PMI and OLB each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 321 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on PMI–OLB, not the driver of the quote.
Palma de Mallorca → Olbia demand cycles pull the 321 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at OLB constrains the lift available for 321 nm inbounds from Palma de Mallorca — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices PMI–OLB beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 321 nm.
Slot coordination at OLB — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Palma de Mallorca departures and raises handling on PMI–OLB.
At 321 nm, PMI–OLB sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at OLB is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the PMI–OLB quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Palma de Mallorca → Olbia
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Palma de Mallorca-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near OLB can trim handling and slot pressure on PMI–OLB — see the airport comparison above.
PMI ↔ OLB (321 nm) is a corridor we monitor for empty legs — set an alert and match one when your dates flex.
Departing 2–4 hours off the peak slot window at PMI drops handling and slot fees on the 321 nm run to OLB.
321 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on PMI–OLB cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

€3,200 – €5,100
Light Jet through Midsize over 321 nm PMI–OLB, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of PMI sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026, reconciled against 2 observed movements on the pair. PMI–OLB quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
PMI–OLB supply — deep
PMI — 82 archived movements (39 out / 43 in) from 17 operators. OLB — 130 archived movements (68 out / 62 in) from 22 operators. Both ends carry based metal, so same-day PMI–OLB lift is realistic outside major event weeks.
Positioning into Palma (PMI)
When the based fleet is committed, the next PMI–OLB lift comes from LEBL (109 nm, 3 aircraft), LELL (122 nm, 1 aircraft), LEVC (149 nm, 3 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Positioning into Olbia (OLB)
When the based fleet is committed, the next PMI–OLB lift comes from LIRA (149 nm, 2 aircraft), LIAF (188 nm, 1 aircraft), LFTZ (194 nm, 1 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Palma (PMI) — departing for OLB
PMI departing for OLB: Coordinated in summer. No curfew — 24/7 operation, though night handling carries a modest surcharge.
Olbia (OLB) — arriving from PMI
OLB arriving from PMI: Slot-coordinated Jun–Sep — Porto Cervo peak. Curfew: 23:00–06:00.
Olbia (OLB)
Charter movement in our archive concentrates in July and August (98% of 130 recorded legs), and falls away in October and September. For PMI–OLB that means booking the peak weeks 2–3 weeks out: the based fleet sells out first, then ferried lift, then nothing, while October is where negotiation actually works.
Global 7500 / Gulfstream G650 on a short sector
