WHAT IS AN EMPTY LEG?

Empty leg charter flights offer a fantastic opportunity for those seeking to book a private jet. But what exactly is an empty leg flight? Let's delve into it.

Imagine a scenario where a private jet has been chartered for a journey from Los Angeles to Colorado. After it reaches its destination in Colorado, and the passengers disembark, the private jet faces two possibilities. If it returns to its home base in Los Angeles without any passengers on board, or if it's scheduled to pick up passengers at another location, say Las Vegas, without any passengers on the outbound journey, this is what we call an empty leg.

Now, picture yourself in Colorado with a desire to travel to either Los Angeles or Las Vegas. Why not seize the opportunity to secure a seat on that empty jet? After all, the aircraft is already heading in your desired direction. This way, you can travel at a significantly discounted rate.

It's a win-win situation for both you and the charter operator!

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF FLYING AN EMPTY LEG?

In the realm of private aviation, empty legs go by various names such as "one-way flights," "empty flights," "dead-heads," "repositioning legs," and "ferry flights." Regardless of the terminology, they all refer to private jet flights that operate without passengers, either to reposition for a future flight or to return to their home base. The allure of empty legs lies in their ability to offer seats at deeply discounted prices, as many of the costs have already been covered during the inbound leg of the journey.

Statistics suggest that a significant portion, anywhere from 30% to 50%, of the private jet charter fleet often flies empty. This translates to incredible opportunities for travelers with flexibility in their schedules to secure astonishingly affordable flights on empty legs.

However, there are two notable drawbacks to booking a seat on an empty leg charter. First, there's the risk that the empty leg could be canceled at any time if the jet is booked for another full-priced charter. Second, these flights are one-way, which means you'll need to arrange your own return journey from your destination. Nevertheless, if your travel plans permit and you don't have a specific time-sensitive commitment, such as a business meeting, empty legs can be an excellent way to experience private jet travel.
