What are empty leg flights?
Empty leg flights occur when a private jet needs to
reposition for its next charter. These flights offer
significant savings (up to 75% off regular charter
prices) as operators prefer to offset costs rather than
fly empty.
How does EmptyJet find flights?
Our AI-powered system continuously scans multiple
sources including operator websites, charter
marketplaces, and industry databases. We verify
availability and pricing directly with operators to
ensure accuracy.
Are there any fees to use EmptyJet?
No. EmptyJet is completely free to use. We don't charge
subscription fees, booking fees, or take commissions.
You deal directly with operators for the best prices.
What does the scoring system mean?
Our scoring system (0-10) evaluates each flight's value
based on factors like price vs. market rate, aircraft
type, route distance, and time to departure. Higher
scores indicate better deals.
What are the different accuracy levels?

How far in advance can I book?
Most empty leg flights are available 1-30 days in
advance, with the majority departing within 7 days.
Last-minute availability (24-48 hours) often offers the
best prices.
Can I change the route of an empty leg?
Empty legs have fixed routes, but some operators allow
minor deviations (usually within 100-200km) for an
additional fee. Contact the operator directly to discuss
flexibility.
How many passengers can fly?
Capacity varies by aircraft type. Light jets typically
seat 4-8 passengers, mid-size jets 6-10, and large jets
10-16. The exact capacity is shown for each flight
listing.
Is it safe to book empty legs?
Yes. All operators listed maintain required
certifications and insurance. Empty legs follow the same
safety standards as regular charter flights. We
recommend verifying operator credentials before booking.
