Empty Legs

You can rent an aircraft at a reduced price when it already needs to fly somewhere without passengers on board. These may be technical repositioning flights, for example when an aircraft is moved from one base to another, or return flights when a client booked only one direction and the jet has to go back to its next point of departure. For the operator or owner it is much better to take passengers at a discounted rate than to fly an empty aircraft. There are many such opportunities on the market, so it is often possible to find a flight that fits your route and timing.

The main advantage of Empty Legs is the price. For the cost of a regular business-class seat, you can often get an entire aircraft at your disposal. There are no exhausting check-in queues, no baggage issues and no unnecessary connections. The main advantages are:

• very fast booking;
• a simpler rental process than a standard private flight order;
• excellent service quality, not comparable with regular flights;
• it may be possible to find a route that cannot be reached from Russia by regular travel options.

• the choice of aircraft models is limited;
• there may be no flight in the required direction at the exact time you need.

However, there are many offers of this kind on the market, so these limitations are not as serious as they may seem at first. Our company will be glad to help you deal with these details and find exactly the flight you need.

As for timing, aircraft owners often meet clients halfway and are ready to shift the departure by several hours in either direction. This is because private repositioning flights are less tied to a fixed schedule than regular flights, and there is often no strict deadline by which the aircraft must arrive.

In the beginning, the Empty Legs system worked strictly in one direction. However, aircraft owners quickly understood how useful it was to take passengers on otherwise empty flights. Today it is already possible to book a return flight as well. It will probably be operated by another aircraft, but the service quality will not suffer from that.

With enough flexibility, it is possible to find reduced-price flights for exactly the time and direction you personally need. Or you can simply contact our company and tell us your requirements. We will take the search for the suitable flight completely upon ourselves.

We will find a private aircraft through the Empty Legs system that can take you from Russia to anywhere in the world, and back if possible. The conditions will be selected around what works best for you.
