When it comes to luxury travel, private jets have long been the epitome of exclusivity and convenience. However, the cost of chartering an entire private jet can be prohibitive for many individuals and businesses. Enter the concept of “empty leg flights,” a game-changer in the dynamic world of private aviation.

Empty Leg flights (also sometimes called ‘Deadhead’ flights) are when a round trip private plane charter flight has no passengers in one direction. Instead of flying empty, private jet operators often offer these empty leg flights at significantly reduced prices to make the most efficient use of their aircraft. This results in heavily reduced private jet fares being available at more than 50% off the RRP.

What a great way to experience the benefits of flying by private jet without the price tag!

Private Jet Empty Leg Information

Do note we have limited dates available as empty leg flights become available when a private jet has been chartered for a specific destination, and there is no passenger for the return journey. The private jet operator seeks to fill this empty leg by offering it to interested travellers at a fraction of the cost of a regular private jet charter.

Empty leg flights provide travellers with a chance to experience the luxury and convenience of hiring a private jet at a significantly lower cost. Passengers can enjoy all the perks of private aviation, including personalized service, flexibility in scheduling, and a comfortable, spacious cabin. Empty leg flights are particularly appealing for spontaneous travellers or those with flexible itineraries, as availability can be limited and flight schedules may not align perfectly.

While empty leg flights offer substantial cost savings, there are a few considerations to keep in mind. First, the availability of empty leg flights can be unpredictable, as it depends on the specific jet charter bookings and timing. Second, travellers must be flexible with their departure and arrival times, as empty leg flights are based on existing itineraries. Lastly, it’s essential to understand that when hiring a private jet via an empty leg it is a one-way trip, so travellers will need to make their arrangements for the return journey.
