Why the price drops
A client pays for a one-way charter from Houston to Austin. The aircraft still has to fly home. Rather than fly it empty, the operator sells that return flight for a fraction of the charter price.
- The date is set by the operator
- It follows the original booking, so it suits trips that can move by a day.
- You book the whole aircraft
- The price is for the jet, not a seat. Bring your own group.
- It can change
- If the original trip moves, the leg moves too. We always offer a full charter alternative.
Outbound
Full charter rate, paid by the first client
Return
Sold below the charter rate, often by half or more
