What Are Empty Leg Flights?
Empty legs occur when a private jet needs to reposition — flying without passengers to pick up its next client or return to base. Rather than flying empty, operators offer these flights at significant discounts, typically 50-75% off standard charter rates.
This means you can experience the full luxury of a private jet — the same aircraft, same crew, same service — at a dramatically lower price. The only trade-off is flexibility: empty legs fly on fixed routes and dates.
How to Book an Empty Leg
Browse our current empty leg availability on the empty legs page or contact your aviation advisor directly. When you find a flight that matches your plans, act quickly — empty legs are first-come, first-served and can sell out within hours.
You can also register for empty leg alerts. Tell us your preferred routes and dates, and we'll notify you immediately when matching flights become available. Many of our regular clients save thousands by staying flexible with their travel dates.
Empty Legs from Dubai
Dubai is one of the busiest private aviation hubs in the Middle East, which means frequent empty leg opportunities. Common empty leg routes include Dubai to London, Dubai to Riyadh, Dubai to Mumbai, and Dubai to Istanbul — as well as repositioning flights from European cities back to Dubai.
Peak availability typically occurs after major events, during seasonal travel shifts, and when aircraft reposition for maintenance. Our team monitors all available empty legs across our operator network and updates the list daily.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much cheaper are empty leg flights?
Empty leg flights are typically 50-75% cheaper than standard charter rates. For example, a Dubai to London flight that normally costs $75,000 might be available as an empty leg for $25,000-35,000.
Can I change the route of an empty leg?
Minor route modifications are sometimes possible — for example, landing at a different airport in the same city. However, the basic route is fixed because the aircraft needs to reach a specific destination.
Are empty legs reliable?
Empty legs can be cancelled if the primary booking changes. We recommend having a backup plan and booking travel insurance. Cancellation rates are relatively low but do occur.
How far in advance are empty legs posted?
Empty legs are typically posted 1-14 days before the flight date. Some appear with just 24-48 hours notice. Sign up for alerts to be notified immediately.
