Loading live availability…
Live empty leg flights to and from Oakland, 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.
Oakland sits on the east side of San Francisco Bay and handles a large share of the region’s business aviation, because it is quicker on the ground than San Francisco and closer to much of the East Bay. The empty leg flights here are Bay Area corporate movements and the runs south and east that follow them.
The board shows a tight group at the top: Camarillo, Las Vegas and Van Nuys four times each, then Scottsdale and Carlsbad. Nine partner airports across twenty-one legs, which is the most concentrated pattern of any city we track in the United States.
Bay Area traffic and the bridges decide this one. Oakland is quick for the East Bay and awkward for the Peninsula, and San Jose is often the shorter total journey for the south.
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 Oakland: 12 departing, 9 arriving, across 9 partner airports. The airports that came up most were Camarillo (4), Las Vegas (4), Van Nuys (4), Scottsdale (3). 10 different aircraft types appeared, most often the Citation Longitude (6), the Citation Sovereign+ (2), the Citation CJ3 (2).
Twenty-one legs and only nine destinations. Oakland flies the same handful of routes over and over, which makes an alert here unusually likely to pay off.
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.
