Why this route produces empty legs

Thirty nautical miles, and the 36 minute block that eight of these nine listings publish is mostly taxi, climb and descent. Teterboro is where private aviation arrives in New York, twelve miles from Midtown, and Republic Airport at Farmingdale is in Suffolk County, out along the middle of Long Island.

Nobody buys this sector for its own sake. At thirty miles it is an aircraft being moved between two fields that serve the same city, not a journey. What makes it worth a page is that the movement is regular enough to have produced nine legs in four months.

One operator, and one that never publishes a price. Every leg on this corridor is Northeastern Aviation, which publishes no figure on any of its 417 listings on this board across 178 city pairs. There is no competing supply here and no published price anywhere on it.

The aeroplanes are far larger than the distance needs. Three legs are a fourteen seat Gulfstream G450, three are an eleven seat Gulfstream G650, and the other three are a Bombardier Challenger 650, a Beechcraft Hawker 900XP and a Bombardier Lear 60. Nobody charters a G650 for a 36 minute hop across New York, which is the clearest possible tell that these are repositioning movements. The reverse direction is the busier one: we hold sixteen legs from Farmingdale to Teterboro against nine coming this way.

When they show up

Nine legs on nine dates between 7 September 2026 and 2 January 2027, arriving in ones and twos every one to three weeks. The only consecutive pair is 1 and 2 November, and the 2 January leg sits two months after anything else on the corridor.

Three were still on the board when this page was built, 1 November, 2 November and 2 January. Five have flown and the 17 October listing has been withdrawn. Nothing here turned up at short notice: the legs went on the board between four and 123 days before departure, and the 2 January Gulfstream G650 was listed on 1 September, four months ahead of itself.

The airports on this route

• Teterboro (KTEB): in Bergen County on the New Jersey side, the departure on all nine legs, and the pair the computed distance on this page uses.
• Westchester County (KHPN) and Morristown (KMMU): the other New York area business aviation fields, and the departure on none of these legs.
• Republic (KFRG): at Farmingdale in Suffolk County, central Long Island, and the arrival on all nine legs.
• Francis S Gabreski (KFOK) and Long Island MacArthur (KISP): the other two Long Island fields, both further east, and the arrival on none of these legs.

Republic is the Long Island field that suits Nassau County and the western half of Suffolk, and Teterboro sits on the opposite side of the city in New Jersey. The two are well over an hour apart by road on a good day and a good deal worse on a bad one, which is the entire reason a 36 minute flight between them exists at all.

Every leg we have on record for this route

Between 31 July and 17 October 2026 we recorded 9 empty legs from Teterboro to Farmingdale. None of them carried a published price: every operator on this corridor lists it on request.

None publishes a tail number.

This is a record, not availability. These are the legs we saw on this corridor in that window, kept so the route has a history you can judge it by. None of them is bookable from this table. What is actually open right now is the live list above, and if it is empty the route alert is the way to catch the next one.

Before you book

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.

None of the nine legs carries a published price. Northeastern Aviation publishes no figure on any of its 417 listings on this board, so there is nothing here to compare and we print nothing rather than guess at it. The price comes from the operator when you ask.

A thirty nautical mile sector is priced as an aircraft movement rather than as a journey. Whatever the operator quotes is for the whole aeroplane and never per seat, and on a sector this short the cost of moving the aircraft at all outweighs the time in the air. A short leg is not automatically a cheap one, and the aircraft on this corridor are large ones.

The listings are otherwise complete. All nine name the aircraft, a seat count between seven and fourteen, and a block time: 36 minutes on eight of them and 42 on the Bombardier Challenger 650 on 13 October. None gives a tail number.

Ask whether the departure time can still move, what happens if the paid flight behind the positioning leg falls through, and whether the aircraft is continuing somewhere else from Republic that might suit you better. Farmingdale to Teterboro is the reverse corridor and the busier of the two.
