Live empty leg flights currently listed on the Bombardier Learjet 45XR, with the seats and the price each operator published, plus what the type is actually good for.
Checking availability on this type...
Fast, narrow, and built for point to point work. In our data it works out of the London airports on short island and regional runs, which is exactly the mission it was designed for.
The seats and range above are published figures for the type. What an operator actually offers can differ by aircraft, cabin layout and fuel load, so treat them as the shape of the aircraft rather than a promise. The seat count shown on each flight is the one the operator published for that specific leg.

Working out which corridors this type is on...
These are counted from the flights currently listed, so they change as the board changes rather than describing the type in general.
We keep a page for these corridors, which is where this type has been turning up:
An empty leg exists because someone else already paid for the flight around it. The aircraft has to reach the client, or get home after dropping them, and that repositioning flight goes on the operator's site at a fraction of the charter price. The more an aircraft type is flown, the more empty legs it leaves behind, which is why the same handful of types fill most of this list.
