Already the number of 'slots' reserved at the airport this summer has increased by 6% over last year. For non-airline personnel a 'slot' is banter for a landing time, a bit like 'bandits at 6 o'clock' only different.
This summer there have been requests for 35,503 aircraft to land at Ibiza airport and the number could still increase, showing that the airline companies still have a great deal of confidence in the island as a holiday destination, albeit one that is changing from its traditional package tour image.
