In 2016 I still paid approx 300,- Euro for landing, one week parking and handling, in June 2017 I was already charged 500 and in September they took over 900,- Euro!!! Each time with my Beech Duke and 2 person on board... In 2018 may be it’s now 1400 in June and 2200 in September, who knows. There is a monopoly situation which is used to rip off pilots as there is no alternate airport.
Jet2 flight LS918 from Tenerife South to Manchester, UK shows as "departed as scheduled at 14:05" on 12 March. However, the flight has still not departed as I write this comment at 20:48!!!!!!
Fuel: Avgas available, the fuel station is located on the opposite side of the GA parking ,so on the arrival if you need to refuel the aircraft, it would be better to communicate your intentions before vacating the runway.
Parking and landing fees: Landing fees are generally speaking low, but the price for the parking is almost the double of the last year, and three times of two years ago!!!
Note: Visit the Aeroclub of Barcelona Sabadell, very friendly people and professional istructors, very good restaurant (low prices). The aerodrome is only 20 km far away from Barcelona (taxi available on the aerodrome and very cheap)
I've fly to IBIZA airport only 3 times between 2010 and 2011. On my last visit we choose IBIZAR as handler and we park the aircraft, a PA-32 (MTOW 1,3T) for 8 days
total fees around 250€.
Now as I've heard AENA (that is also the aerodrome operator) has raised up to 50% the total costs of the parkings and landing fees, so to park the same aircraft now maybe the total costs will be almost double. On the other hand ES CODOLAR is the only way to reach IBIZA or Formentera island by GA plane.
CAUTION : During summer if your flight is under IFR a departure slot is mandatory!
Tips: swimming pool (2), Nice Club house and very good restaurant (low prices also), Friendly people. Overall: one of the best aerodrome I've visited ever
Hi Desmond ,Did you manage to get any infos abt flying school here in muxamiel? ?Im 80hrs ppl and looking for build up my time now ,i live in Alicante ,thanks
Hi,i am 400 hour ppl retiring to costa blanca and would like to fly cessnas or pipers at Muchamiel.Do you have email numbers and telephone numbers for flying schools at muchamiel airport.If so please send them.Thanks.Desmond.
No internet address available so far. Use phone instead, but beware they don't speak anything but spanish. AFAIK MOGAS is available but better check, airfield is actually in the middle of nowhere and I'm not sure any gas station is available in the vicinity. I use AVGAS and was forced to refuel in Jerez.
FPL may be submitted by phone, but if you fly to Morocco you have to pass custom in Jerez (Morocco is not Schengen area).
