Empty leg flights in Turkey and worldwide
An empty leg is a repositioning flight: an aircraft flying without passengers to or from another trip. On AviaLink you can browse real-time empty leg opportunities published by operators and set scanners that watch for the routes and aircraft you want.
Empty legs on AviaLink
- Empty leg search: browse available empty leg flights with competitive pricing. Availability changes daily as operators publish and remove flights.
- Empty Leg Scanners: set your criteria once (specific routes, aircraft types and price points) and the scanner monitors the global fleet in real time, sending email and SMS alerts the moment a matching flight is published.
Empty legs from and to Turkey
Empty legs touching Istanbul, Bodrum, Antalya and other Turkish airports appear only when an operator publishes one, so they cannot be guaranteed for a given date. The practical approach is a scanner for the route you need; if nothing suitable appears, a regular private jet charter quote is the alternative. Every empty leg is subject to availability and to the operator's schedule.
What does it cost?
Empty Leg Search: 23 credits per successful search. Empty Leg Scanner: 99 credits per month. 1 credit = $1.49 and AviaLink takes no commission. See pricing.
