How to catch an empty leg
- Set an empty-leg alert for Mexico City in the Yond app — you get a push when new legs appear near the airport you follow.
- Stay flexible on the day and the airport: legs follow someone else's schedule and can move or disappear with the original booking.
- Fly one way. If the date is fixed, compare the leg with a full one-way estimate before you decide.
