What is an empty leg?
After dropping off passengers, a private jet must fly back to base or reposition for its next booking — without anyone on board. These flights are typically offered at steep discounts.
How to use this index
Track which airports generate the most repositioning traffic and which routes recur most often. Friday sees the highest volume — book early in the week for the best selection.
What 0.2% means
Only 0.2% of all tracked flights become available as empty legs. Light Jets lead in volume with 177 legs over 30 days — the most opportunistic segment for deal-seekers.
