The Long-Haul Empty Leg: Heavy and Ultra-Long-Range Movements This Week
Global 6000s, Falcon 7Xs and Gulfstream G650s on the move across three continents.
Heavy and ultra-long-range aircraft are the workhorses of intercontinental private travel — and the most expensive to position. That makes their empty legs disproportionately valuable to charter clients willing to flex on dates.
This week we are tracking 145 heavy/ULR repositioning legs worldwide, including transatlantic crossings, Gulf-to-Asia rotations, and intra-Europe high-density missions.
