Available Empty Legs
Up to -75%Take advantage of jet repositioning on this route at reduced rates. Same service, date flexibility required.
Empty legs (repositioning flights) offer a unique opportunity to fly by private jet at reduced prices. When an aircraft needs to reposition after dropping off passengers, this empty flight is offered at preferential rates of up to 75% off the standard price. Contrary to popular belief, an affordable private jet does exist: empty legs allow you to get a private jet quote well below standard rates. These private jet deals are ideal for flexible travellers seeking a discounted private flight. The principle is simple: you enjoy the same premium service (catering, transfers, concierge) but at a reduced price because the aircraft has to make this journey anyway. To take advantage of these empty leg offers, sign up for alerts and receive availability in real time. Each empty leg is a chance to fly by jet at a reduced rate — dates are fixed but the savings are substantial. Browse all available empty legs on our real-time search engine, or request your free quote to find out about the next empty legs on this route.

Initial contact, a bespoke offer, contract, payment. And always in direct contact with your private advisor, at every step.
