Basic Details Regarding Empty Leg Flights

By Mark Gibson


Empty legs are flights on private jets scheduled to be flying back to home base or to their next destination for the next charter they have without any passenger. Aircraft carriers found these inefficient because any profit is not made with these journeys. That is the reasons these trips are being offered in a lower price for them to earn some extra money.

You can experience flying in private jets with a much lower price than what its original cost will be. These empty leg flights may be more expensive than the airline ones but the convenience of being able to show up and get on board directly just minutes before schedule. You will be served as if you are a regular customer by offering you drinks, champagne and snacks.

These flights are one way and would be dependent on the original booking and subject to the changes made by the original customer. They own this flight and you as the empty leg customer will have to be flexible and fit around these adjustments. If late changes are made then you must adjust to these and be ready for your plans to change.

It is possible to have some choices regarding departure time specially when your flight is going to the airport where the original customer will ride. If they would use it on the morning, the repositioning usually happens the day before so you can choose to fly in the afternoon or evening. So take advantage of these as they are the ones that are less likely to change.

If their original flight is before yours though so it is more possible for the customer which booked it to make some changes. They may decide on delaying their travel for a few hours which will then delay yours for a few hours or may be moved tomorrow. They might also decide to cancel it then yours are going to get canceled most probably and a full refund would be given.

Their availability depends on the time of the year and location and not every destination is available. Europe have more during the months of May to September though the purposes are for leisure usually where they travel to the popular holiday destinations. It is harder to find one with a destination going to cities for business.

This is unlike the USA which the amount of private flights across the year are more even compared to Europe. One of the destinations that is most popular is Los Angeles, CA for those that are riding within this class of transportation. The USA has the most airports also for private jets and this class of transportation is much more popular here as well.

Booking for a return journey is possible although it is harder to find one that would fit with your destination and schedule. An empty leg flight is one way so you have to arrange a different way to travel back home. You can do this by combining it with an airline flight for the return trip so have this booked beforehand as well.

Famous people are the owners of these planes though who it is will not be told to you. Remember to try this whenever you can to have a new experience. This is not suggested for those needing to have a fixed time of departure.
