What CGN to IBZ looks like
The CGN to IBZ sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Cologne CGN to Ibiza IBZ is a medium haul sector of 1,408 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 1,408 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 2h 18m.
Cologne CGN is a major hub in the network held here, 154 scheduled destinations and 168.6 departures a day. Ibiza IBZ has 91 destinations and 178.4 departures a day.
Cologne and Ibiza keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 43 of them join CGN to IBZ.
| Connecting at | CGN to hub, flights a day | Hub to IBZ, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Palma PMI | 13.29 | 17.86 | 1,444 | 4h 07m |
| Basel BSL | 0.71 | 1.29 | 1,454 | 4h 10m |
| Marseille MRS | 0.71 | 1.14 | 1,439 | 4h 12m |

One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at CGN in the afternoon actually flies on.
43 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Palma PMI, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 13.3 times a day.
Through PMI the routing covers 1,444 km against the 1,408 km nonstop track and takes about 4h 07m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 75 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 49m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Basel BSL at 4h 10m and Marseille MRS at 4h 12m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Cologne, Dusseldorf DUS is 54 km away by great circle and carries 176 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for CGN to IBZ in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
