What does the Malaga to Ibiza flight path pass over?
The flight crosses open Mediterranean Sea between the Spanish mainland and Balearic Islands. No major landmarks are visible during the middle 40 minutes of cruise; the sea remains the dominant feature. The aircraft passes roughly south of Formentera (the southernmost Balearic island) but at altitude this small island is difficult to distinguish. The approach to Ibiza becomes visually interesting only in the final 15-20 minutes of descent when the island's terrain becomes clearly defined.
