Unlock Exclusive Empty Leg Flights with UberJets | Virtual Hangar®
Empty leg flights have become one of private aviation’s best-kept secrets—offering deeply discounted private jet rates without compromising luxury or convenience. If you’ve ever dreamed of flying private at a fraction of the cost, understanding how empty legs work and how to access them is your golden ticket.
What Is an Empty Leg Flight?
An empty leg flight, also known as a repositioning flight, occurs when a private jet needs to return to its base or continue to another airport without passengers. Instead of flying empty, operators offer these routes to customers at significantly reduced rates—often up to 75% off standard pricing.
These opportunities arise when:
A jet drops off passengers at a one-way destination and needs to return
A flight is repositioning for its next booked leg
A charter cancellation creates a new route opportunity
For savvy travelers, empty legs are a chance to fly on-demand while enjoying elite aircraft and FBO amenities—without paying full price.
