Not that bad to remove on a raised floor. There will be some kind of barrier, likely asphalt paper under the tile. Get under one edge and lift a whole section up breaking only at the point where it's too big to move.
I can't believe what I'm seeing when people remove concrete patio slabs, tile and similar. Generally they beat it into rubble and then deal with all of pebbles. If not using a tractor to lift up the corner and take better than 4 foot sections out at a time, at least get the biggest bar you can find and lever up a corner, pick it up with a hoist of some sort and put it in the dumpster or truck.
I've removed entire tile countertops in just about one piece only breaking at peninsulas or the sink. It's how it's done.
