Why this route produces empty legs

Thirty five minutes in the air and a route flown almost daily. Aircraft based in the Midlands reposition to the London business airports to start charters, which is why this short hop turns up so often as an empty leg.

The trade is the same everywhere: you give up control of the date and often the exact hour, and you fly private for a fraction of the charter price. If your plans are fixed to the hour, ask for a normal quote instead.

When they show up

• Weekday mornings. Most of these legs are early, before the first paid charter of the day.
• Farnborough Airshow years. When traffic between the Midlands and the south spikes.

The airports on this route

Before you book

Ask the operator three things: whether the departure time can still move, what happens if the paid flight that created this empty leg falls through, and which exact airport you are using. On Birmingham to London that last point matters, because the city name in a listing can mean more than one field.

If nothing is listed today, that is normal. Empty legs on Birmingham to London appear with days of notice, not months, which is why the alert below beats checking the page by hand. You can also look at London to Birmingham or London to Dublin, which often carry the same aircraft a day earlier or later.
