Discover one of private aviation's most sought-after opportunities: empty leg flights. At MPI Jet, we're offering discerning travelers access to exceptional private aircraft charter experiences through our empty leg program. For those in the know, these flights represent a sophisticated way to experience the luxury and convenience of private aviation.
What Are Empty Leg Flights?
Empty legs occur when a private aircraft needs to return to its home base or position itself for the next scheduled flight—but with no passengers on board. Rather than fly these private charter routes empty, we make these exclusive flights available to our clientele. This creates opportunities for both experienced private flyers and those new to private aviation to take advantage of last-minute travel options.
The Full Private Experience
Don't mistake an empty leg flight for a shared charter or single-seat purchase. When you book an empty leg with MPI Jet, you're securing the entire aircraft—not just a seat. This means you can invite friends, family, or colleagues to join your journey at no additional cost. The listed price covers the complete aircraft charter, whether you're traveling solo or with your entire party (subject to aircraft capacity).
What is included with every empty leg booking:
Exclusive access to the entire private aircraft
The freedom to fill every seat with your chosen guests at no extra charge
The same premium service as full-price charter clients
Flexibility to adjust departure times within the schedule window
Travel together, save together, and enjoy the privacy and luxury of booking an empty leg.

Understanding Empty Legs Logistics
While empty legs offer incredible value in private aviation, there are some important considerations to keep in mind:
Fixed Routes
The departure and arrival locations are determined by the original private charter route. However, we can often reposition the aircraft to nearby airports for an additional fee, giving you more flexibility in your travel plans.
Scheduling
Flights are subject to the schedule of the primary charter
Dates and times may shift if the original flight plan changes
Booking windows are typically shorter than standard private aircraft charters
Maximizing Your Empty Leg Experience
To make the most of empty leg opportunities:
Stay Flexible: The more flexible you can be with dates and locations, the more empty leg options you'll have available.
Act Fast: Empty leg deals can disappear quickly, so being ready to book when you see a suitable flight is crucial.
Consider Alternative Airports: Being open to departing from or arriving at alternate airports can significantly increase your options.
Have a Backup Plan: Given the nature of empty legs, it's wise to have a Plan B for your travel arrangements.
Cost Considerations
While empty leg flights offer substantial savings on private aircraft charters, remember to factor in:
Potential repositioning fees if needed
Ground transportation to/from airports
Accommodation costs if the schedule shifts
