Private jet empty legs
Chicago → Miami

Price band: $6,500 – $22,000Flight time: ~2h 30m

Chicago to Miami is the highest-volume Midwest snowbird corridor — 2h 30m from Midway (MDW) or Palwaukee (PWK) to Opa-locka (OPF) or Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE). Ultra-high demand November-April as Chicago-area residents winter in Florida creates predictable one-way empty legs both directions. Light jets (Citation CJ3, Phenom 300) charter $12,000-16,000; empty legs $6,500-10,000. Empty leg supply spikes early December + January (post-New Year returns) + late March (spring return north). Book alerts 3-4 weeks ahead for optimal pickup.
