Understanding Empty-Leg Charter Flights


What are empty-leg flights? Empty-leg flights are one-way segments flown without passengers—usually to reposition an aircraft for its next trip. Rather than fly empty, operators offer these legs at significant discounts.


Here’s what that means for you: the same aircraft, the same crew, the same service—but at up to 75% less than the standard charter price.
