ACE 2026 - The home of global charter.
The bimonthly news publication for aviation professionals.
EmptyLegFinder.aero has launched in the United States and Canada with a digital marketplace for empty leg flights. The platform lists more than 1,400 live repositioning flights at launch, with over 200 added daily from licensed charter operators. Empty legs occur when aircraft reposition for a scheduled booking. These flights are offered at reduced rates to travellers with flexible schedules.
For a flat $30 monthly subscription, members unlock full operator contact details and book directly, with no commissions or hidden fees. Users can filter flights by departure city, arrival location, aircraft category and date, accessing inventory sourced exclusively from licensed operators in the United States and Canada.
“We built this platform with one person in mind: the traveller,” says Zaher Deir, founder and CEO of Empty Leg Finder. “Private aviation should be about transparency and opportunity. We provide the data, we facilitate the connection and we step aside. Our members book directly with operators, knowing they are securing the best possible value without inflated fees.”
The platform began operating on 17 February 2026, allowing travellers to search listings free of charge, with membership required to access operator details and complete bookings.
