Private jet routes / London to Athens
Empty-leg private flights London to Athens. When an operator repositions this route, the whole aircraft goes for a fraction of a booked charter.
Empty legs we have carried on this route went for €24,100 to €26,300 for the whole aircraft. A scheduled charter over the same distance usually costs several times that, because you are paying for the aircraft to fly out and back.
About 3h 33m in the air, over 2.4k km. Private terminals add far less time on the ground than an airline departure, so door to door is usually shorter again.
Most often a Embraer Praetor 600. The aircraft is set by whichever operator is repositioning, so it changes from flight to flight; every listing names the type.
We have listed 5 on London to Athens so far, and 2 are on the board right now. Empty legs appear at short notice, so a route alert is the reliable way to catch one.
