Sang Rod Stewart in the song “True Blue*” released in 1972. In fact most of us will never own a private jet, however over the past few years private jet travel has become more affordable so that more and more of us are flying “private”.
If you just want the experience of flying on a private jet, then one of the most cost effective ways to do this is to book a seat on what is known as an “empty leg” flight. You will see these also called ‘dead legs’, ‘empty sectors’ or ‘one-way transients’.
Why do “empty legs” exist? If a customer books a private flight then the aircraft will possibly need to fly to another destination to pick up its next customer. It will be flying that leg empty. Empty leg flights do not offer any flexibility, they will have a pre-determined aircraft type, departure date and time, and destination. Empty leg flights are often available at up to 75% discount on the usual charter price. The exact price will depends on the route and the operator. Operators are sometimes prepared to offer exceptionally low prices at the last minute, if they haven’t been able to sell the flight at the full price. Contact Maggie to find you a great deal.
Travelling with the family or a group of friends, then private jet charter will take the stress out of travelling. With the benefit of private terminals you can avoid the hustle and bustle and endless queuing of busy airports. Glide through check-in, security, passport control and customs will make your dream holiday such a pleasure. In addition charters have the ability to access more locations, reducing the need to make long transfers via a second plane or other transport to your final destination.
Your private jet can be combined with an exclusive private villa or a luxury resort, At present many of the Caribbean islands do not require quarantine on return to the UK so why not fly in your own jet from the UK on a day and time to suit you. Some discerning travellers are looking to stay in a luxury resort such as Sandy Lane on Barbados, one of the most prestigious 5 star hotels in the world.
