How Empty Legs Work
Private aviation at a fraction of the cost. Understanding the market is the first step to accessing it.
Empty Legs Explained
When a private jet flies passengers one way and needs to return to its base or next pickup location, that return flight is called an "empty leg." Rather than fly empty, operators offer these flights at 25-75% below normal charter rates.

Common Questions
Are empty legs safe?
Empty legs use the same aircraft, pilots, and operators as full-price charters. The only difference is the pricing. Safety standards are identical.
Can the flight be cancelled?
Empty legs depend on the primary booking. If the original trip changes, the empty leg may be modified or cancelled. This is the trade-off for the significant discount.
Can I choose the departure time?
Times are generally fixed since they depend on the operator's schedule. Some operators offer limited flexibility within a few hours.
