Local aerodrome regulationsLOCAL REGULATIONS
AIRPORT REGULATIONS
All General Aviation and Business aircraft must contract ground handling services, in accordance with AD 1.1 section in the AIP for Spain.
From May 1st until October 15th (both inclusive), training and school flights are not allowed during Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Flights in VFR conditions are exempt from the previous request for airport slot.
ARR/DEP of jet aircraft under VFR are not authorized.
From 1 May to 15 October, all General Aviation aircraft with a wingspan exceeding 18 m and helicopters with a maximum dimensions of 12 m, for stop-overs longer than 3 hours, must request the stand prior to the operation via a handling agent.
In this case, requesting the airport slot requires prior parking authorisation from the Airport.
From June 01st until September 30th, the maximum parking time of an aircraft with a maximum wingspan of 18 m in the Commercial Aviation Apron is one week.
In summer season, all General Aviation operators whose aircraft remain parked on the commercial apron, must be prepared, upon request from the airport channelled through the appropriate handling agent, to relocate the aircraft on the same apron or another, within no more than 3 hours.
EXCHANGE OF DATA WITH NMOC-ADVANCED ATC TWR
The airport of Ibiza exchanges information for departure flights by applying the Advanced ATC TWR procedures.
Message exchanges from the local system to the ATM network uses the European standard for A-CDM airports, using the following message types:
-
A-DPI: for all instrumental departure flights.
-
C-DPI: when required.
When start-up approval has been announced and the aircraft starts to exit the stand, the target take-off time (TTOT) is calculated and transmitted to NMOC (Network Manager Operations Center) via an A-DPI message. The use of the actual off-block time (AOBT) instead of the EOBT of the flight plan, along with the variable taxiing time, increases the precision of the take-off time.
After reception of the A-DPI, DLA or CHG messages that change the flight plan data shall not be accepted. If regulated, the CTOT assigned before receiving the A-DPI shall be maintained.
If an aircraft has to abort taxiing for technical reasons, the airport shall send a C-DPI message to the NMOC. The result of the C-DPI is that the flight plan shall be suspended by informing the operator via an FLS message with the comment "Suspended by Departure airport". The flight plan can be activated again by updating the EOBT with a DLA or CHG message.
ATC AUTHORIZATION REQUEST AND START-UP VIA DATA LINK
DCL departure procedures are applied at Ibiza airport in the provision of ATC clearance and start-up services. For more information on the DCL service, see AIP ENR 1.5, section 3. DEPARTING FLIGHTS, ATC Clearance and start-up via data link (DCL).
In case of discrepancies, voice communications will always prevail over data link.
The pilot may request the ATC clearance by DCL with a maximum of 30 minutes before the EOBT.
The pilot must request ATC and start-up clearance together via RCD. The RCD message (Departure Clearance Request) must contain the following information:
-
Aircraft callsign in accordance with the filed flight plan (FPL).
-
Aerodrome of origin.
-
Aircraft stand.
-
Destination aerodrome.
-
Letter corresponding to the ATIS information received.
-
ICAO aircraft type designator.
Any free text sent via the RCD by the pilot will not be considered by the ATC. Special requests will always be made via voice communications.
The pilot will receive a message acceptance "RCD RECEIVED" or cancellation "RCD REJECTED".
Ranges of time established for requesting start-up clearance:
-
Aircraft without assigned CTOT: From 15 minutes before their EOBT up to 10 minutes after their EOBT.
-
Aircraft with assigned CTOT: From 15 minutes before their CTOT up to 10 minutes before their CTOT, if they are parked on stands with exit by towed push-back, or from 15 minutes before their CTOT to 5 minutes before their CTOT for the remaining stands.
-
To improve the predictability of the TTOT, ATC may issue instructions for start-up clearance to be requested at a specific time.
-
In periods of high demand, ATC may apply other values which guarantee compliance with the tolerance window of the flight.
When an RCD message is received before the stablished ranges, the RCD will be accepted and CLD with ATC clearance will be sent, reminding the crew to call when they are ready and in accordance with their EOBT/CTOT.
When an RCD message is received within the stablished ranges, the RCD will be accepted and CLD with ATC clearance and start-up approval will be sent.
When communicating approval, Ibiza Clearances will issue a CLD message with the following fields:
-
Aircraft callsign.
-
Destination aerodrome.
-
Assigned runway for departure.
-
Take-off procedure (SID).
Note: The initial altitude will correspond to the published SID.
-
SSR code mode A (SQUAWK).
-
ADT (Approved Departure Time).
Note: ADT = CTOT of the flight, if applicable.
-
Next frequency.
-
Current ATIS information letter.
-
Additional information, which will include start-up clearance or instructions to request it.
When an FSM message of the type "REVERT TO VOICE PROCEDURES" is received, communication via data link will be terminated and must be reverted to voice procedures.
When a CLD message is received, the pilot:
-
If any inconsistencies in the received message are detected, the pilot must revert to voice procedures and request a new authorization.
-
If the pilot considers the authorization CLD message to be correct, he/she must respond via data link with a CDA message.
-
If not ready for start-up, the pilot must not accept the authorization and will contact via voice communications to the controller when ready.
If a CDA message is not received by the pilot within the waiting time, or a CDA that is inconsistent with the previous CLD message is received, communication via data link will be terminated and a "CDA REJECTED" message will be received in the FMS.
When the correct CDA message is received, the ATC system will send the aircraft a "CLEARANCE CONFIRMED" message in the FMS and will terminate the communication via data link.
The push-back and/or taxiing request must be made on the appropriate frequency included in the corresponding CDA message.
REVERT TO VOICE PROCEDURES
Upon receiving a message of the type "REVERT TO VOICE PROCEDURES", or in the event of any inconsistency in the authorization received, the pilot will contact via voice communications with the controller and request a new authorization.

TAXIING PROCEDURE IN APRON
-
Start-up of engines/jets.
To prevent flight plans from being automatically suspended, the EOBT must be kept up to date.
-
Clearance to start the engines/jets shall be requested on the appropriate frequency broadcast on ATIS. At the time of requesting this clearance, the aircraft must be fully ready for immediate start-up.
-
On initial contact, pilots shall notify ATC of the full call sign of the aircraft, the parking stand occupied, and the ATIS message received.
-
-
Avoidance of collisions with other aircraft or obstacles is the responsibility of:
-
Pilots, when taxiing on the apron.
-
Ground handling companies during push-back or parking stand exit manoeuvres.
-
-
Aircraft with a wingspan of 52 m or more shall report it to ATC on initial call, both on arrival and departure.
-
Aircraft with a wingspan of 52 m or shall access the platform through GATE G1.
-
Aircraft shall inform ATC when they are ready to commence towed push-back.
Aircraft must be ready to taxi within 5 minutes of the approved start-up time, otherwise the pilot shall inform ATC.
In the event that an incorrect push-back is detected, TWR may request the pilot in command to re-park the aircraft.
-
Unless otherwise instructed by ATC, push-back manoeuvres will be carried out as follows:
Commercial Aviation Apron:
-
Towards the east with RWY 24 in service and towards the west with RWY 06 in service, except PRKG 37 to be nosed in straight with RWY 06 in service.

General Aviation Apron:
-
Towards the east on PRKG from 53S to 68S and from 73M to 88M.
-
Towards the south on PRKG from 90N to 105N.
-
-
The use of reverse thrust in push-back operations is prohibited on the apron.
-
ATC clearances and instructions must be read back.
-
TWR will provide the parking stand number to the pilot once the aircraft is on the ground.
-
At General Aviation positions and PRKG 19, 19A, 19B, 20, 20A, 20B, 25B, and positions where the visual docking guidance system is out of service, the "FOLLOW ME" vehicle will guide the parking manoeuvre.
-
The "FOLLOW ME" vehicle guidance service will also be provided in exceptional situations when requested by TWR or at the request of the pilot.
-
-
VFR traffic shall make the initial call when ready to taxi. In the initial call they shall report their PRKG and the CTR exit point. The initial call must be made within 15 MIN before the EOBT until 30 MIN after the EOBT.
-
In the event that, for any reason whatsoever, a significant increase in thrust power is required inside the apron, the pilot in command of the aircraft shall coordinate with the Aerodrome Control Service so that the manoeuvre is supervised by a signalman.
HELICOPTER TAXIING PROCEDURE
Helicopters shall conduct approaches towards RWY 06/24 and take-offs at RWY 06/24, as the FATO coincides with the runway.
Helicopter operators with letters of exemption and conducting a special operation under the Air Traffic Regulations may operate according to the local airport procedure for such operations. To do so, they must contact the airport's ATC service.
Helicopters with wheel-type landing gear shall land at RWY 06/24, as the declared TLOF coincides with the FATO, and taxi to the parking stand. In order to exit PRKG 32, 33, 73M, 74M, 75M, 76M, these aircraft shall perform an aerial turn.
Helicopters with skid-type landing gear shall approach RWY 06/24 and once hovering, will air taxi to the parking stand.

NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES
ENGINE TEST
Clearance schedule of the tests will be: I: From 0630 to 2259; V: From 0530 to 2159 UTC, should the power regime to be applied is medium or maximum.
Engine tests will be accomplished at the locations indicated by TWR.
This task must be accomplished in accordance with a local procedure.
The request for an engine test authorization must be addressed in writing to:
OFICINA CECOA/CECOPS:
-
FAX: +34-971 809 271
-
E-mail: ibizaoperacionesCPO@aena.es
and the following information must be included:
-
Registration number of the aircraft.
-
Engine test starting and ending hours.
-
Estimated duration.
-
Type of aircraft.
-
Power regime settings.
- LANDING
- REVERSE THRUST.- Reverse thrust other than idling may not be used except for safety reasons from 2200 to 0500.
- TAKE-OFF
Aircraft departing from RWY 06 shall proceed immediately after take-off as follows:
- Reduce engine power.
- Except for safety reasons, ATC will not provide direct left turn routes below 6,000 ft.
Aircraft taking off from RWY 24 shall proceed immediately after take-off as follows:
-
Reduce engine power.
-
Except for safety reasons, ATC will not provide direct right turn routes below 6,000 ft.
FLIGHT PROCEDURES
ARRIVAL PROCEDURES
Arriving aircraft with RNAV1 operational approval will be cleared to proceed via one of the published standard arrivals (STAR).
Aircraft without RNAV1 operational approval will be issued an ATC clearance to proceed to one navigation aid or conventional fix, a sequence of them, or will receive radar vectors.
Standard arrivals (STAR) CORDA1S, TOLSO2S and VARUT2Y are intended for noise abatement and will have a preferential use at night, subject to ATC clearance.
CLEARANCE LIMIT
Arriving aircraft proceeding on a Standard Arrival (STAR) will consider the IAF as clearance limit. With no further ATC clearance, enter the IAF holding.
APPROACH RADAR CONTROL
When arriving traffic is being sequenced by means of ATS Surveillance Systems, part of the approach will be flown under directions from Radar Control.
Under Radar Control, standard arrival (STAR) and/or initial approach procedure may be partially or completely omitted by means of a "direct" clearance to a waypoint of the STAR, to the IAF, to a waypoint of the intermediate approach or to the IF, or radar vectors may be provided to guide the aircraft to the final approach course or to a position from which a visual approach may be completed.
Once the aircraft is under Radar Control, changes of heading or flight level/altitude will be made under instructions from Radar Control, except in case of radio communications failure.
SPEED CONTROL
Speed Control is essential for safe and smooth operations, especially in dense traffic and during final approach.
Spacing provided between aircrafts aims to achieve maximum runway utilization within the parameters of safe separation.
These speeds are mandatory for separation purposes and standardized approach procedures at Ibiza Airport.
Except otherwise instructed by ATC, pilots shall comply with the following speed restrictions:
-
MAX IAS 250 kt at FL100 or below.
-
MAX IAS 210/220 kt according to speed limitations over the waypoints of the standard arrival procedure (STAR).
-
IAS 200 kt at 12 DME ILS.
-
IAS 180 kt at 9 DME ILS.
-
IAS 160 kt at 4 DME ILS;
-
or equivalent distance from threshold in case of DME ILS U/S.
All speed restrictions are to be flown as accurately as possible.
Aircraft unable to conform to these speeds due to weather conditions, aircraft performance or other operational reasons, should inform ATC immediately and state what speeds might be used.
In the event of a new (non speed-related) ATC clearance being issued, pilots are not absolved from the requirement to maintain a previously allocated speed.
Noncompliance with speed control instructions may lead an aircraft to be excluded from the planned approach sequence.
UNINTENDED CROSSING OF FINAL APPROACH COURSE
In order to avoid unintended crossing of the final approach course when radio contact is not possible, if an aircraft is on a radar vector leading to the final approach course at an angle of 50 degrees or less, or if the aircraft has been cleared to a waypoint located on the final approach course, the pilot shall turn inbound to the final approach of the previously assigned runway and shall adhere to the cleared altitude, unless the pilot has been instructed by ATC to cross the final approach course.
DELAY INFORMATION ON APPROACH
ATC will not provide EAT (Expected Approach Time) information to aircraft holding on approach, as long as the holding time does not exceed 10 minutes.
RADIO COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE PROCEDURE
An aircraft which experiences a communications failure shall immediately squawk on the SSR mode 7600.
Procedures depending on the position of the aircraft at the time of the failure:
-
During a STAR procedure before the IAF: Maintain last cleared flight level/altitude and hold over the IAF. Start descending after one complete holding pattern, or after the EAT if received, whichever is later, and complete a published IFR approach to the active runway for arrivals in order to land within the next 30 minutes.
-
Aircrafts without RNAV1 operational approval: Maintain last cleared flight level/altitude and proceed direct to VOR/DME IBA and enter the hold. Start descending after one complete holding pattern, or after the EAT if received, whichever is later, and complete a published IFR approach to the active runway for arrivals in order to land within the next 30 minutes.
-
On radar vectors before the IAF: Maintain last cleared flight level/altitude, fly directly to the first suitable IAF and follow procedure stated in point a).
-
On radar vectors or "direct to" instructions after the IAF: Maintain last cleared flight level/altitude and proceed to the final approach course to complete the approach procedure and land. If unable to do so, execute the missed approach procedure with communications failure stated in e).
-
During the missed approach: Do not initiate the missed approach procedure before the MAPT, follow the procedure, join the holding, make a complete holding pattern, and complete the approach procedure and land.
CONTINUOUS DESCENT OPERATIONS
Depending on traffic situation, and if no need for interrupting the descent is foreseen, aircraft will be cleared to proceed to a standard arrival (STAR), or by means of a "direct to" clearance to an intermediate fix of the STAR, to the IAF, to an intermediate approach fix or to the IF, to the minimum altitude of the IAF or the IF of the instrumental procedure (IAC), in order to allow a continuous descent operation.
DEPARTURE PROCEDURES
Departing aircraft with RNAV1 operational approval will be cleared via one of the published standard departures (SID).
Aircraft without RNAV1 operational approval will be cleared via contingency standard departure and further radar assistance or radar vectors to proceed to their route.
SPEED CONTROL
In order to optimize the departure flow and assist in the separation between successive departing aircraft, aircrafts will comply with speed limits over waypoints of the SID.
Additionally, aircrafts will maintain MAX IAS 250 kt at FL100 or below. ATC may remove the speed restriction by using the instruction 'No ATC Speed Restriction'. Pilots are reminded that this instruction does not absolve the pilot of the responsibility to adhere to the Noise Abatement Procedures that may require a speed/power limitation.
RADIO COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE PROCEDURES
An aircraft which experiences a communications failure shall immediately squawk on the SSR mode 7600.
Procedures depending on the position of the aircraft at the time of the failure:
-
During a SID procedure: Follow the SID to the TMA exit point, climbing to the last cleared altitude/flight level, or the minimum safety altitude, whichever is higher; maintain that level or altitude for 7 minutes, continue climbing in accordance with the updated FPL.
-
On radar vectors on departure: Intercept, in the most direct way, the last SID procedure given by ATC and continue the communications failure procedure stated in a). If SID clearance has not been received, proceed to intercept the appropriate SID to the TMA exit point in accordance with the FPL.
-
Aircraft without RNAV1 operational approval on contingency departure or on radar vectors: Proceed direct to the TMA exit point according to the communications failure procedure stated in a), and join the corresponding ATS route.
LOW VISIBILITY PROCEDURES (LVP)
-
Ground Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) will be applied whenever meteorological minima reach the following values:
-
Runway Visual Range (RVR) for both runways (the most adverse value will always be used) equal or lower than 550 m.
-
In case all RVR equipment fails, horizontal visibility in the manoeuvring area equal or lower than 800 m.
-
-
Ground Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) will be cancelled whenever RVR meteorological minima, as defined in the previous paragraph, are above 800 m (visibility ≥ 1000 m in case all RVR equipment fails) during a period longer than 10 minutes and there is a forecast for improvement.
-
Pilots will be informed by the ATIS when Low Visibility Procedures are being applied.
-
ATC units will directly provide the Runway Visual Range (RVR) values for RWYs 24 and 06.
-
Landings: RWY 24 and 06, subject to the required installations being in service, are adequate for CAT I operations by those operators whose minima have been accepted, or hold minima assigned by the Agencia Estatal de Seguridad Aérea or by the equivalent authority of the State of the Operator.
-
Take-offs: RWYs 24 and 06 are suitable for low visibility take-offs under the predicted conditions. Take-offs will be suspended with a RVR or visibility (where appropriate) ≤350 m.
-
Ground movement: See item 20, section 2.6 "Ground movement under low visibility conditions".
In case the RVR or the visibility (where appropriate) is below 350 m all aircraft operations will be cancelled.
ATS SURVEILLANCE AT TWR
Above 700 ft, ATS surveillance systems may be used in the provision of aerodrome control service, to perform the following functions:
-
Flight path monitoring of aircraft on final approach.
-
Flight path monitoring of other aircraft in the vicinity of the aerodrome.
-
Providing navigation assistance to VFR flights.
-
Establishing separation specified in article 4.6.7.3 of the Reglamento de la Circulación Aérea between succeeding departing aircraft.
Depending on the availability of the radars which provide coverage to the CTR, the altitude from which the indicated uses of the radar are supplied may vary.
Aerodrome controllers shall maintain a continuous visual watch on all flight operations on and in the vicinity of the aerodrome, with access to an ATS surveillance system to support that visual observation, as stipulated in article 4.5.1.3 of the Reglamento de la Circulación Aérea. All of the foregoing shall depend on the limitations of the equipment.
