Empty legs
Repositioning flights, for travellers who can flex.
When an aircraft flies empty to collect its next passengers, that leg can sometimes be offered at a lower price. Register your route and we tell you when one fits.
How they work
Good value, on the aircraft’s schedule.
Empty legs suit people with flexible dates. They are a different product from a charter planned around you, and it helps to know the trade-off.
What an empty leg is
A flight an aircraft has to make without passengers: returning to base after a drop-off, or positioning to pick up its next charter.
Why it can cost less
The operator flies the leg regardless, so it may accept a lower price for passengers on board. Prices are set by the operator and vary by route and date.
What can change
Route and timing follow the main charter. If that charter moves or cancels, the empty leg can change or disappear, sometimes at short notice.
Register a route
Tell us where you would like to go.
Send the route, your date window and the number of passengers. Your advisor checks current availability with operators and contacts you if a suitable leg appears. There is no obligation to book.
We do not list empty legs on this site. Availability changes by the hour, and a published list would be out of date before you read it.
Can I bring luggage?
Yes, within the aircraft’s baggage limits, which we confirm for each leg.
Can I book a return?
Empty legs are one-way. A return can be arranged as a separate charter or another empty leg if one appears.
