The title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Ibiza/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Ibiza/" target="_self">flights to Ibiza from London City Airport were originally due to be suspended in September but will now continue, along with title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Majorca/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Majorca/" target="_self">flights to Majorca, until the end of October.

The flight time to Balearic party-island Ibiza is less than two and a half hours, making the newly-extended route especially suitable for travellers seeking a weekend break.

Luke Hayhoe, commercial manager for BA CityFlyer, commented: “These leisure routes have really taken off from London City. They proved so popular that we have already increased frequency to Mallorca to five flights a week and to Ibiza to four flights a week in July and August.”

BA Cityflyer is a subsidiary of British Airways that operates services from London City to destinations such as Madrid, Barcelona, Nice, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Edinburgh and Geneva.
