Live empty leg flights to and from Monterey, straight from the charter operators that fly them.
Checking live availability…We list what operators publish and take no commission. Your enquiry goes to them.
Availability is re-read from operator sources through the day, and each leg carries its timestamp.
The figure shown is the operator's own, for the whole aircraft. Where none is published we say so.
No account needed to browse, no card, and no charge at any point.
Monterey serves Carmel, Pebble Beach and the Big Sur coast, and its traffic rises sharply around the golf and motoring events on the peninsula. The empty leg flights here are the repositioning around that traffic.
One route dominates: Las Vegas, nine times in four weeks out of twenty-one legs. After that it is Fort Worth and Santa Ana. Fourteen of the twenty-one were leaving, so this is a place people fly into and then depart from on a different aircraft.
Monterey has coastal fog for much of the summer morning. It clears, but it moves departure times, and that is worth knowing before you plan a tight connection at the far end.
Where an operator publishes a price it is shown exactly as listed, as a whole-aircraft figure rather than a per-seat fare. Where none is published the card says so rather than estimating.
California sectors are under two hours; Las Vegas is about an hour and a half. You can also browse the whole list by aircraft type.
Between 31 July and 27 August 2026 we recorded 21 empty leg flights touching Monterey: 14 departing, 7 arriving, across 11 partner airports. The airports that came up most were Las Vegas (9), Fort Worth (2), Santa Ana (2), Aspen (1). 10 different aircraft types appeared, most often the Citation CJ3+ (4), the Citation Sovereign+ (4), the Citation Longitude (3).
Nine of the twenty-one were Las Vegas. Pebble Beach and the Strip turn out to be closely related.
These are counts from our own board over that window, so they reflect the operators we read rather than the whole market, and they are a record of what was listed, not a forecast. New legs appear with days of notice, which is what the route alert is for.
An empty leg exists because of the paid charter around it, so it can be sold or moved without notice. Every listing here is recorded from what the operator published, with the date we last saw it. Treat it as a strong indication rather than a guarantee, and confirm with the operator before planning around it.
Empty Leg List is a listing service. We are not a broker, not an operator, and not party to any booking, and we take no commission. Your enquiry goes to the operator covering the route, who confirms availability and final price with you directly. If nothing matches, set a route alert and we email you when a leg on that corridor is listed.
