Aircraft broker Air Partner has launched a website that features real-time empty leg availability on private jets. Those visiting the website will be able to search for private jets by sector and aircraft at prices up to 75% lower than conventional charter rates, says the UK-based company.

"Air Partner Empty Sectors provides clients with an at-a-glance range of hundreds of currently available flight options and also allows them to submit specific route and date requests," it says.

"Previously we provided a competitively priced empty leg service on request, but this new development makes for a far smoother experience for clients seeking real-time information. It should also help reduce the number of 'empty' aircraft by making sensible use of their movements."

The service is aimed at business and leisure travellers and uses software provided by Avinode.
