Imagine having all the money in the world to afford a private jet. And you choose to go to Ibiza.

Should I have all the money in the world I would most likely spend a good part of the year in Ibiza. I've been to a lot of places in the Mediterranean (and other shores) and Ibiza is one of the most beautiful places in terms of nature, people and generally good vibes.
Equating Ibiza to sex and parties is like saying Amsterdam is nothing but rain or London is always foggy. There's some truth to it, but you'll be missing a whole lot if judging just by that
Edit: typo

In the article it says Napoli, Amsterdam, and Berlin have shown the greatest increase in popularity. Paris and Ibeza are 12th and 18th, respectively. Not sure why these destinations were chosen for the title of the article.

London - Ibiza is the combination that saw the highest growth.

We're social animals: for a lot of these guys, the point of having money is to display it.

Some rich people like to mingle with the pleb and love flashing their wealth around the great unwashed. It gets them tons of admiration.

While I haven’t been myself. I believe Ibiza very much has two literal sides to the island. The well known party side and a far more family friendly, beautiful, beach resort that is very popular with the affluent middle classes. I can completely see why people who can afford a short haul privet flight would choose Ibiza.

There they basically can have all forms of sex with any human they desire, free of charge. Compare this with GBP 200 per hour in London...

It's only free of charge if you ignore the high cost of the private jets, fancy hotels, table and bottle service at fancy clubs which alone is 2k Euros.
Suddenly 200gbp/hour is a real steal. But it's not about the money, it's about the feeling of power when people throw themselves at you.
