For aircraft owners

You fly the trip. The jet flies home empty.

Every positioning flight burns fuel, crew time and cycles with nobody on board, and the cost lands on you. If your aircraft flies charter on a proper certificate, that same leg home can be offered as an empty leg, and someone else helps pay for a flight that was happening anyway. If your legs are never offered, your aircraft is not performing at its potential.

Why owners should care

Revenue on the table, or cost on the ramp.

EmpTleg is a search and alert platform, not a broker. Charter on your aircraft still runs through your operator, on their certificate, under the approvals you already set. The only thing that changes is whether your empty miles get the chance to pay for themselves.

Offset your positioning costs

A repositioning leg returns nothing on its own. Offered as an empty leg, the same flight can produce revenue that offsets fuel, crew and fixed costs, on a movement your aircraft was making anyway.

Your tail number is never shown

No tail numbers on EmpTleg, ever. Your aircraft can't be identified from a discounted leg, and exact pricing is visible only to subscribers, never in public results, shared links or previews.

Vetted, paying flyers only

Full leg detail is shown only to paid EmpTleg subscribers, including verified flyers. Your legs are never dangled in front of anonymous traffic, and every inquiry still goes through your operator's own qualification.

It stays your call

Some owners don't want outside passengers on their aircraft, and that is a valid choice. But your jet repositions empty either way. Offering the leg home should be a decision you make on purpose, not one made for you by silence.

The flight home, two ways

Same movement. Different outcome.

Owners fly trips. Aircraft position home. The only question is who pays for it.

Your trip lands

The aircraft still has to get home, and today that flight is pure cost.

The leg home is offered

Your operator prices it and posts it. EmpTleg puts it in front of members searching that route.

Someone helps pay for it

Revenue against a flight that was going to happen anyway.

The other direction

Empty legs work for your own flying too.

Owning an aircraft does not mean every trip belongs on it. Whole aircraft owners, fractional owners and jet card holders use EmpTleg the same way any member does, and searching costs very little.

Backup lift

When your jet can't make it

Down for maintenance, displaced on another trip, or crew out of duty time. A matching empty leg gets you moving without paying to position your own aircraft, exactly when you are stuck.

Save money

When the math just works

Sometimes a leg already in the feed flies your route on your dates for a fraction of what moving your own aircraft would cost. Take the match, save the cycles, keep your jet where it is needed next.

Standing watch

Premium watches your routes

Save the routes you actually fly and Premium emails you the moment a match posts. You don't hunt for the opportunity. It finds you.

How owners make it happen

One conversation with your operator.

Owners rarely deal with us directly, and that is by design. The certificate, the quoting and the booking all belong to your operator or management company. Your part takes five minutes.

Best path

Ask your operator

Ask where your empty legs are being offered, and ask them to send their availability to EmpTleg. It costs them nothing, there is no exclusivity, and they keep 100% of every booking.

Check

See it for yourself

Search your home airport on emptleg.com. If your aircraft's positioning legs never show up anywhere, they are not being offered, and that is revenue left on the table.

Direct

Talk to us directly

You are welcome to reach out yourself. Nothing lists without your operator, but we are happy to tell you whether we see their legs, and to make the introduction.

Is your aircraft on a proper charter certificate?

Empty legs can only be sold on aircraft operated under proper charter authority, Part 135 in the US or the equivalent in your jurisdiction. If your aircraft is managed for private use only, its legs can't be offered at all. If offsetting your costs interests you, ask your management company what operating on a charter certificate would take.

Is your aircraft performing at its potential?

Ask your operator where their empty legs go. Or ask us, and we'll tell you whether we're seeing them.
