Dispatch monitors repositioning flights across the operators we work with, around the clock.

3. First refusal by email

You hear about a match before it goes public — with the operator, tail number and price already checked.

Good to know

Atlanta empty leg questions

What is an empty leg flight from Atlanta?

When an aircraft flies into or out of Atlanta without passengers — repositioning after a drop-off or heading back to base — the operator sells that leg below the standard charter price. The aircraft, crew and safety standard are identical; only the pricing and the flexibility differ.

How much can I save on a Atlanta empty leg?

Typically up to 75% against a standard charter on the same aircraft. The discount depends on how badly the operator needs the leg filled and how close the date is.

Which airports do Atlanta empty legs use?

Any of the 5 jet-capable fields across metro Atlanta. Most repositioning traffic runs through DeKalb Peachtree Airport (PDK), while Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) has the longest runway at 12,390 ft for heavy aircraft, and Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is closest to the centre at 7 nm.

What's the catch with empty legs?

Flexibility. The date, time and sometimes the exact airport are set by the operator's other flight, and a leg can be withdrawn if their original booking changes. We tell you any conditions upfront rather than after you commit.

How do I get told about Atlanta empty legs first?

Give dispatch your corridor and budget and we watch the inventory for you — route alerts go out by email the moment something matches, which usually beats the public listing.

Flying out of Atlanta soon?

If your dates flex even by a day, say so — that is usually the difference between full charter price and an empty leg.
