Every price on EmpTleg buys the entire aircraft, not a seat.
Why search the whole metro
An empty leg is created by where the aircraft already is, not
by where you would prefer to depart from. A jet repositioning out of
ORD costs the same to you as one out of MDW, and on any given day
the cheaper flight is as likely to be at the quieter field. Searching one
airport is how most people miss the flight they wanted. EmpTleg searches a
radius by default for exactly this reason.
How empty legs work
Private jets often fly empty, heading home after a drop-off,
or repositioning for the next pickup. Rather than fly them empty, operators
sell those flights at a deep discount. They appear fast, disappear faster,
and are scattered across hundreds of operators. EmpTleg puts them in one
searchable place. You contact the operator directly; we never touch the
booking and never take a cut of your flight.
