Interesting article on Ibiza Spotlight suggesting that the Ibiza and Balearic governments are on the verge of a deal with Monarch which will mean direct flights from Ibiza to Gatwick this winter. That would be good news.
Hopefully, if it happens, Monarch's departure times will be a bit less anti-social than they are in the summer. Gatwick at 5am is not the nicest place in the world. Mind you, Ryanair used to get you to Stansted at 11pm which wasn't that useful either, especially if London wasn't your final destination.
There's also a link to an article which perhaps explains why Ryanair's dropped its winter flights to the UK. The British government has added an £11 departure tax which makes low-fare routes less profitable. So perhaps it's not the Ibiza and Balearic governments screwing things up this time.
