Empty legs from Miami
Aircraft finish one-way trips in Miami every day and leave again to meet their next client — each of those flights is a potential empty leg. Private jets fly from Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF), Miami Executive Airport (TMB), Miami International Airport (MIA). On our estimates, an empty leg out of Miami usually sells for about $2,800–$4,100 on the cheapest route (Miami → Nassau), against $5,500 for the same flight booked as a full one-way charter.
Typical empty-leg prices from Miami
Full one-way prices are Yond engine estimates for the cheapest aircraft class that can fly the route. Empty legs usually sell 25–50% below that; a real leg exists only when an aircraft happens to reposition on the route.
