Pen-Avia Empty Leg Flights

When circumstances dictate Pen-Avia offer “empty leg” (also known as “ferry flights” or “’empty sector'”) return journeys on its Gulfstream G600 and G450s.

An empty leg is when the private jet is empty after dropping off passengers or when it’s flying to pick up passengers at another location. Essentially, it’s the portion of a booked trip where the plane is moving without passengers on board.

Why Do Empty Legs Exist?

Imagine a scenario where someone has booked a one-way private jet charter from London to Lake Nakuru in Kenya. After dropping off its passengers in Kenya, the aircraft might need to return to London for its next charter booking. If there aren’t any passengers booked for the return, that leg of the journey would be empty.

In these situations Pen-Avia like to offer these return legs. Contact us here for the latest opportunities. 

Advantages of Booking an Empty Leg with Pen-Avia

Empty leg flights are cost-effective. One of the main advantages of booking an empty leg is that it can be substantially cheaper than a regular charter. Discounts on the standard charter price are available.

In most cases this will entail that you fit into the aircraft’s schedule rather than it fitting into yours.


Why Book a Private Charter?

One of the main reasons people choose to charter a private jet is that, as the name implies, flying private allows for confidential conversations and a level of privacy in journey that’s impossible on commercial flights, which can be especially important for high-profile individuals or those discussing sensitive business matters.

Added to that there is extra comfort and luxury. Private jets often offer luxurious interiors with spacious seating, high-end amenities, gourmet meals, and personalised service.

Pen-Avia is your own personal airline. Big enough to get you where you need to go, when you need to go there, personal enough to get to know you. Travelling with us makes the journey one of the good things in life, not something to be endured. Better than first or business class, Pen-Avia is a class apart.
