What Are Empty Leg Flights?
Empty legs are the flights by which an aircraft flies to a distant airport to collect passengers and then take them to their intended destination, or when it takes passengers to their destination and returns without passengers to its UK base.
As the principal charter price will have included an element to cover the empty positioning leg, such legs can be sold as a secondary charter should the empty leg coincide with a journey that the client wishes to make.

Our aircraft will generally, (but not always) position to or from Cardiff. Subject to crew flight duty considerations it is often possible to divert the aircraft from its planned direct route to an intermediate airport. In such circumstances the price we quote for the empty leg will include the cost of any extra flying time and the additional airport landing and handling fees
