As many people familiar with private jet charter flights know, finding an empty leg is the best way to get a good deal on a trip using a private aircraft. Empty Legs are flights that are scheduled to fly empty either getting into position for or returning from another charter. Sometimes the cost of these flights may be already paid for or subsidized by the person occupying the other end of the trip. In these such cases, empty leg flights may sell for a fraction of regular retail rates. The hardest part is actually finding empty legs that match the trip you need.

On Jet Partners’ site, you can click on world map, into the USA and then to New York or New Jersey. You can then look at the different airports surrounding NYC such as Teterboro, Westchester County, Republic Airport, and even the major hubs like JFK , Newark and LaGuardia. On these airport pages you will see the next 5 available empty legs, which type of aircraft they are on and where they are headed. You can also click a link just below the short list and see an even longer listing of empty legs that will show anything presently available, possibly months in advance.
Be Flexible and Save Even More Using Empty Leg Charter Flights
Many times the cost of a round trip charter flight might be very high due to the charges for keeping a private jet or aircraft at an airport that it is not based at during the trip dates. Other times you may actually be charged for twice the flight time as the owner of the jet will not want to keep the aircraft away for so long and you will be forced to purchase a double round trip. The best way to circumvent these costs is to get two true one ways for your departure and returning flights. If you are flexible on the airports you are willing to use and the dates and times you can fly than your best bet is to match up two empty legs. While this is not always an easy task, Jet Partners “Empty Leg Finder” is the best way to see what flights are currently available.
Just like any other market, the pricing of these Empty Leg flights will have to do with supply and demand. Empty Legs during holidays and busy travel periods will typically not be discounted as much as when there are less people traveling. The pricing will also depend on how bad the aircraft needs to move.
