"Empty Leg" Made Easy With Air Charter International
By Air Charter International, PRNEWednesday, November 17, 2010
DUBAI, November 18, 2010 - Chartering Empty Legs is becoming increasingly popular in the Air Charter
industry and known for being a quick and easy way to travel at a fraction of
the original cost. By offering empty legs, aircraft operators create an
effective way to increase their profit margins as they optimize an available
sector on a flight that has already been commissioned for another client.
"Empty Leg" is essentially a term used to describe a flight made by a
commercial aircraft without any cargo or paying passengers on board.
Companies like Air Charter International that specialize in commercial
aviation realize the significance of Empty Legs in the market and understand
its important role in the private jet world as many executive travelers take
advantage of flying at a rate that is up to 40% less than the actual cost.
"At Air Charter International we do our best to supply our
clients with empty legs so that they can benefit from the price as well as
travel in luxury and comfort", said Claire Brugirard, Manager of the Charter
Sales team at Air Charter International.
Air Charter International has also invested in this Empty Leg
charter market by making the Empty Legs accessible to their clients online.
"We now give clients direct access to worldwide Empty Legs", confirmed Ms.
Brugirard. "The empty legs we show on our site are LIVE and instantly updated
directly via the operator's scheduling system".
Air Charter has capitalized in this recent market interest in
Empty Legs by chartering a host of Empty Leg flights themselves. One
particular flight was a cargo charter to Dushanbe. Air Charter International
managed to find cargo on the way back to the UAE on the return flight
therefore providing the client with a much lower rate than full charter.
"The great thing about the Empty Leg concept is that both
client and operator stand to benefit from it", said Ms. Brugirard, "Operators
have a chance to increase their revenue whereas clients are able to fly at a
much lower cost".
With this in mind Air Charter International is concentrating
on providing clients the best standard of service and the most competitive
rates for all Empty Leg flights. For more information feel free to visit
