Why are empty leg flights cheaper than normal private jet flights?

Empty-Legs are Cheaper than Private Jet Charters

Uncovering the Value of Empty Leg Flights with GlobeAir

Empty-leg flights represent a unique segment in the private jet charter market, offering significantly lower prices than regular private jet flights. Understanding why these flights are more affordable can help you take advantage of these opportunities while appreciating the economic dynamics of private jet travel.

Reasons Behind the Lower Cost of Empty Leg Flights

Utilisation of Otherwise Empty Flights

  • Offsetting Operational Costs: Empty leg flights occur when a private jet is scheduled to fly without any passengers, usually as it repositions for its next charter or returns to its home base. Charter companies offer these flights at discounted rates to offset the operational costs of flying an empty aircraft.

Maximising Aircraft Efficiency

  • Benefiting from Unused Capacity: By offering empty-leg flights at lower prices, charter companies can maximise the efficiency of their aircraft usage. This practice turns a potential financial loss into an opportunity for the charter company and passengers looking for more affordable private travel options.

Comparing Empty Leg Flights to Regular Charters

Significant Price Reduction

  • Affordable Access to Private Jets: While the discount can vary, empty-leg flights are typically much cheaper than booking a standard private jet charter. This price reduction makes private jet travel more accessible to a broader range of customers.

Trade-Offs and Considerations

  • Fixed Schedules and Routes: It's important to note that empty-leg flights have less flexibility in scheduling and destinations than regular private jet charters. Passengers opting for empty-leg flights must adapt to the pre-determined flight schedule and route.

Leveraging Empty Leg Flights:

Ideal for Flexible Travelers

  • Taking Advantage of Last-Minute Deals: Empty-leg flights are particularly appealing to travellers with flexible schedules who can accommodate these flights' fixed timings and routes.
