Understanding Empty Leg Flights - FlyAXS
Everything you need to know about empty leg flights: how they work, why they offer savings of up to 75% off regular charter rates, and how to find and book them through FlyAXS.
How Empty Legs Are Created
When a charter jet completes a trip and needs to return to its base airport or reposition for its next booking, that flight without passengers becomes an empty leg opportunity.
Why the Discount?
The operator already needs to fly the aircraft, so selling seats on repositioning flights at a discount generates revenue that would otherwise be lost. Savings can reach 50-75% off standard charter rates.
How to Book
Browse the FlyAXS marketplace for available empty legs, filter by route and date, and book directly with the Part 135 certified operator.
