Find Discounted Private Jet Flights with Avi-Go

Discounted private jet flights are often associated with empty-leg flights, also known as repositioning flights.


An empty leg becomes available when a private aircraft needs to fly between two airports without passengers. This may happen after completing a one-way charter, before collecting the next customer, or while repositioning for another operational requirement.


Because the aircraft is already expected to operate the flight, the sector may be offered below the price of arranging a new private charter.


Avi-Go helps charter brokers find available empty-leg opportunities and connect with relevant operators. These listings are intended for aviation professionals rather than direct booking by end clients.


What Is an Empty-Leg Flight?


An empty-leg flight is an unoccupied aircraft movement linked to another charter or operational schedule.


For example, an aircraft may fly from Paris to London with passengers and then need to return to Paris without them. The return sector could become available as an empty leg.


These opportunities may also be described as:

  • Discounted private jet flights
  • Private jet deals
  • Repositioning flights
  • One-way charter deals
  • Last-minute private jet opportunities


The aircraft, route, and approximate schedule are normally already determined, which is why empty legs offer less flexibility than standard private charter flights.


Why Are Empty-Leg Flights Discounted?


A standard charter is arranged around the customer’s preferred route, aircraft, and schedule.


An empty leg works differently. The aircraft is already planned to move between two locations, so the operator may offer the available capacity at a reduced rate rather than operate the sector without passengers.


The final price depends on:

  • Aircraft type
  • Flight duration
  • Departure and arrival airports
  • Time remaining before departure
  • Current charter demand
  • Airport and handling costs
  • Whether the planned route must be adjusted


There is no fixed discount percentage. The strongest opportunities usually appear when the requested journey closely matches the aircraft’s existing route and schedule.


Empty Leg vs Standard Private Charter



Empty legs are most suitable when the traveler’s route and timing already align with the aircraft’s planned movement.



Find Empty-Leg Opportunities with Avi-Go


Avi-Go allows charter brokers to search available empty-leg opportunities across routes, dates, and markets.

  • Search available empty-leg routes
  • Review departure and arrival locations
  • Check aircraft and schedule information
  • Identify suitable options for client requests
  • Connect with relevant operators
  • Expand the charter options presented to clients


Avi-Go does not position the empty-leg search as a direct consumer-booking service. Charter enquiries and booking coordination are handled by qualified charter brokers and operators.

How Charter Brokers Can Use Empty-Leg Listings


Search by Route or Date


Brokers can search using the client’s preferred departure area, destination, or travel date.


Searching nearby airports and a wider date range may reveal more suitable options.


Review the Available Flight


Important details may include:

  • Departure and arrival airports
  • Flight date
  • Aircraft type
  • Passenger capacity
  • Operator information
  • Route or timing limitations


Listings remain subject to final operator confirmation.


Contact the Operator


When an opportunity matches a client request, the broker can contact the relevant operator to confirm:

  • Final price
  • Aircraft availability
  • Departure time
  • Baggage capacity
  • Passenger requirements
  • Additional charges
  • Cancellation terms


Present the Option to the Client


The broker can then compare the empty leg with standard charter alternatives and explain the differences in flexibility, price, and schedule reliability.


What Brokers Should Confirm Before Booking


Empty-leg flights can change because they are often connected to another charter mission.


Before confirming an option, brokers should check:

  • Whether the route and departure time are fixed
  • Whether the flight depends on another booking
  • What happens if the original charter changes
  • Whether airport, handling, catering, and taxes are included
  • The aircraft’s passenger and baggage limits
  • Cancellation and payment conditions
  • Whether schedule flexibility is required


For time-sensitive trips, a standard charter may still be the more reliable option.
