Empty legs by country
Each country has its own page, with that country's legs, airports and prices in local currency. Counts are live.

Why the price drops
A client pays for a one-way charter from Edmonton to Banff. 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

FAQ
Questions, answered
Still deciding? A charter specialist will talk you through aircraft, airports and price, with no obligation.
Ask a specialistWhat is an empty leg flight?+
A one-way flight a private aircraft has to make with nobody on board, to get home or to reach its next client. The operator offers that flight for less than a dedicated charter.
How are empty legs priced in Canada?+
Each listing shows the price for the whole aircraft in CAD, before GST or HST where it applies, and airport fees. Where a saving is shown, it is measured against our estimate of a full one-way charter on the same route and jet size.
Are taxes included in the price shown?+
No. The details of each leg show an estimate of taxes and fees, and your quote shows the final all-in price.
How do I book an empty leg with Altivo?+
Choose a leg and send an enquiry. Our desk confirms the aircraft, the date and the final price with the operator, then sends you the quote to accept. Nothing is charged when you enquire.
Are empty legs safe?+
Yes. The flight is flown by a licensed charter operator with the same aircraft, crew and maintenance standards as a full charter. In Canada, charter operators are licensed and overseen by the Canadian Transportation Agency.
Why is the operator not named on the listing?+
Operators share discounted legs on the condition that they are not advertised under their name. You see who operates the flight on your quote, before you commit.
How far ahead are empty legs listed?+
Usually days, sometimes a few weeks. A leg exists only once the original charter is booked, so an alert for your route is the surest way to hear about it first.
What if no empty leg matches my trip?+
Ask for a full charter quote on the same route. You choose the date and time, and we check for a matching empty leg while we source it.
Can an empty leg be cancelled?+
Yes, if the original charter changes. We always offer a full-charter alternative.
Can I change the time?+
Usually not; timing follows the original booking.
Do I get the whole aircraft?+
Yes. The price is for the aircraft, not per seat.
Can I bring pets and luggage?+
Yes, within the aircraft's limits, the same as a full charter.
