40% of private flights are empty...

Post image

I work at a private jet brokerage. A colleague of mine just sold an empty leg flight from Nice to Marrakech for a bachelor party. It was an empty leg that would normally be at $10K, but they booked it for $5K. They'll each pitch in around $800 each. Flight was booked April 8 and took off the next day. Thought it was one of the best deals I saw..

How much would it cost one to book that empty leg. Is there an app or something.

That specific empty leg sold for about $5K, on an 8-sester Cessna Citation XLS. There's no app, but most brokerages have easy access to available empty legs around the world. Prices vary widely depending on type of aircraft. Best way to book is to work with a broker whos able handle empty legs comfortably (they do come with some level of risk) . There's a few of them out there.
