Empty Legs
One-way flights, often half the price.
When a jet has to reposition, the seat is cheaper. See ten sample flights and set an alert for your route.
The idea
What an empty leg is
A jet that has to fly home empty
A client flies one way and the aircraft returns, or moves to its next job, with nobody on board.
You buy that one-way flight
The operator would rather cover costs than fly empty, so the price is often half the usual one.
You fly when the jet does
Dates and times move by a few hours, and a flight can be cancelled if the first client changes plans.
