Questions

How do empty leg flights from Washington, D.C. to San Francisco work?

An empty leg is a private jet flying from Washington, D.C. to San Francisco without passengers — usually on its way to or from another charter. Operators offer these flights for less than a normal charter. Prices on this page are for the whole aircraft, not per seat, and every leg is subject to the operator's main trip going ahead.

Which Washington, D.C. airports do they leave from?

We count legs at Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), arriving at San Francisco International Airport (SFO), Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport (OAK), Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC). Legs at nearby airports are listed separately below.

How much does an empty leg from Washington, D.C. to San Francisco cost?

Most operators share empty-leg prices on request. Request a leg — we reply in minutes and send your quote for the whole aircraft as soon as the operator confirms.

How far ahead are empty legs available?

Most are posted a day or two before departure, and they go quickly. Set an alert on this page and we'll email you when a new one is listed.

What if the flight I want isn't listed?

Request the flight you need. We'll look for an empty leg or a well-priced charter and send you a quote — free, with no obligation.

What happens if the operator cancels the leg?

An empty leg exists because of the operator's main trip, so it can change or be cancelled if that trip does. If a leg you booked is cancelled by the operator, you receive a credit for a future flight, valid 12 months, as set out in our booking terms.
