Online air charter marketplace Flyjets has launched Flyjets+, which includes features such as “bid offer” and “fly empty” that allows users to create empty legs, which the company says will increase charter aircraft utilization. The build for the application was finished last year and it is currently live for customers, Flyjets said.

“What we do is we say, ‘Okay, an airplane would be priced at X if it was outright pricing, given it would fly to and from Teterboro to Opa Locka, Opa Locka back to Teterboro—we can split that between two parties on opposing routes, that price is going to be 40% below for each party, which is great, and we do this in real time,” explained Flyjets CEO Jessica Fisher.
