One way empty legs between London and Nice, exactly as the operators list them. Prices are the operator's own, not a marked up quote.
Straight line distance between the two cities. Actual routing and flight time depend on the aircraft and the airports.
Nice is the fourth busiest destination out of London Luton in our record. Luton produces 117 recorded departures to 49 different destinations and six of them come here, behind Paris Le Bourget on ten, Larnaca on eight and Dublin on seven.
From the Riviera end the same six legs rank third. Nice takes 108 recorded arrivals from 54 different origins, which makes it one of the most widely connected fields on our whole board, and London Luton supplies six of them, behind Olbia on eight and Ibiza on seven. No single origin dominates Nice, which is why six legs puts a corridor near the top of it.
Three operators produced the six and no two of them flew the same aircraft. Air Charter Scotland listed three, an Embraer Legacy 650 twice and a Cessna Citation Latitude once. Luxaviation listed one, a Cessna Citation XLS+. SaxonAir listed two, a Bombardier Global Express and a Cessna Citation CJ3. Five types across six legs, and the published seat counts run from eight to thirteen.
Only one of the six carries a price, and that is the operators rather than a gap in our collection. Luxaviation publishes a figure on 319 of its 758 listings in our record, which is why its leg here has one. Air Charter Scotland publishes none on any of its 201 listings and SaxonAir none on any of its 32, so five of the six rows below say on request and will keep saying it.
Through late summer and into the autumn. The six legs run from 27 August to 30 September 2026, four of them between 27 August and 11 September and the other two on 20 and 30 September.
Notice is very short from two of the three operators. Air Charter Scotland listed its 27 August and 1 September legs one day before each departure, and Luxaviation listed its 11 September leg one day ahead. SaxonAir put both of its legs on the board on 8 September, twelve and twenty two days ahead. The sixth, the 4 September Citation Latitude, was already listed on 31 July when our record begins, so all we can say is that it was there at least five weeks out, not when it actually went up.
Approximate corridor between London and Nice. Operators fly the sector direct; the airports each listing uses are shown on the flight itself.
All six legs name London Luton by ICAO code. Four of them also name Nice Côte d'Azur by code and the other two write only the city, which pairs with that one airport everywhere in our data. A seventh listing exists on this corridor, from GlobeAir on 2 September, and it is not counted in the six: it carries no airport code at either end and no aircraft type, so there is nothing in it to check. The table further down reads our record live and matches on city names rather than codes, so that listing can still appear in it.

Every leg we have recorded between London and Nice, in either direction, since 30 July 2026, whether it is still on the board or not. A leg leaves the board when the operator stops publishing it, and we cannot tell from outside whether it was sold or withdrawn, so these are counts of what was listed, not of what flew.
One bar per calendar month, from the first month in our record to the furthest date an operator has published so far. Grey bars are months already past, gold is this month and the months ahead. A blank month is a month we have no record for, and before August 2026 that means we were not yet recording. The months ahead hold only what operators have published up to now, and most empty legs appear days or weeks before departure, so those bars will keep growing. The shape says how far ahead operators publish, not how busy a month will be.

Each row is a pair of airports as the operator named them, in the direction flown. Both directions of the corridor are counted. An operator that names only the city leaves us the city, which is why some rows are city names.
The price on a card is the operator's figure for the whole aircraft. What that comes to per seat, across every type we see, is in how much an empty leg private jet costs.
One of the six legs carries a published price: GBP 7,900 for the whole aircraft on a Cessna Citation XLS+ with eight seats, departing 11 September. That is the operator's figure for the aircraft, not a per seat fare, and it is the only number this corridor gives us.
The other five say price on request. Two of those five, both SaxonAir, publish no seat count and no block time either, so three columns of the table below read Not stated on those rows. The four that do publish seats give thirteen, thirteen, nine and eight.
Block times come from three of the six listings and they agree closely: 2 hours, 1 hour 55 minutes and 2 hours, against a great circle of 580 nautical miles. The other three publish nothing, so plan against two hours and confirm it with whoever is flying you.
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 London field you are leaving from, because our record has legs departing Luton, Biggin Hill, Stansted and Farnborough under the single word London and only Luton appears on this corridor.
London to Nice empty legs are posted days ahead, not months. Leave your email and we watch both directions for you, London to Nice and Nice to London, and send you nothing else.
