The short answer
Oxford to Palma de Mallorca takes about two hours, and a recent flight with two people and a dog on a Hawker 400XP was £12,560. Spain follows the EU rules, so your dog needs a GB-issued Animal Health Certificate, and pets from outside the EU must arrive through a designated travellers' point of entry.
Palma is the most common Spanish destination we fly with dogs, and it is an easy one: about two hours in a light jet.
A real example
A flight in July 2026 from Oxford to Palma, with two people and a dog on a Hawker 400XP, was £12,560 (2 hr 07 min). The way home in April 2025 on a Phenom 300 was £12,850. See the Oxford to Palma route page.
What the dog needs
- A microchip, then a rabies vaccination, then a wait of at least 21 full days
- A GB-issued Animal Health Certificate for the trip, valid 10 days for entry
- Arrival at a designated travellers' point of entry
Points of entry, including Ibiza and Menorca
Spain publishes a list of travellers' points of entry for pets arriving from outside the EU (the list we read is labelled 21.05.2026). Ibiza and Menorca did not appear in the text of the list we read, so we do not assume that a private flight can clear a pet there: we check with the Spanish authorities for your flight. See the Spain page.
Coming home
Your dog returns on the same GB-issued AHC for six months from issue, as long as the rabies vaccination is valid. It also needs a tapeworm treatment before landing and an approved arrival route. See bringing your dog home.
