Empty leg Paris ↔ Venice
View the empty legs listed between Paris and Venice, in both directions, right on the edge of the lagoon.
Venice is more of a holiday destination than a business destination. An ‘empty leg’ refers to a repositioning flight without passengers, which is open for booking by the operator responsible for carrying it out. The published offer specifies the date, the airport, the aircraft, the number of seats and the price.

Distances and journey times are provided for guidance only. The airport, flight time and timetables depend on the published offer and operational conditions.
Venice Marco Polo, on the mainland to the north of the lagoon, caters for business aviation; Treviso serves as an alternative depending on slot availability and the aircraft type. In Paris, Le Bourget remains the go-to airport. The airport is included in every quote.
The aircraft is mainly used for private and cultural purposes, supplemented by the city’s major professional events: biennials, conferences and events in the lagoon. An empty leg dictates its own schedule, which is particularly suited to trips planned with flexibility.
The Venetian calendar sets the pace for activity: the carnival in winter, biennales and festivals from spring to autumn, and high visitor numbers in summer. A busy period increases traffic without guaranteeing that an offer will be published.
In business aviation, a jet does not necessarily remain in the city where it drops off its passengers. It may need to return to its base, another airport or the departure point for its next flight. When it makes this journey without passengers, it is known as an empty leg.
Unlike a traditional charter, the route, date and timetable for an empty leg are already set by the operator. Passengers therefore book an existing flight, with less flexibility. As a result, the price is lower than that of a bespoke charter. MarketJet brings together the offers published by its partner operators so that they can all be viewed in one place.
A stopover lasting several days does not mean the aeroplane remains stationary: it departs after dropping off passengers, then returns to pick them up. Each of these two journeys can be made with no passengers on board and be open for booking, in either direction.
The flights offered on MarketJet are operated by certified air operators. MarketJet connects travellers with these operators and centralises their repositioning offers; MarketJet does not operate any aircraft.
Around 1 h 25 for 840 km. This is an approximate estimate, excluding the journey to the historic centre.
Marco Polo is the closest to the lagoon; Treviso is used depending on the slot and the aircraft. The airport is listed on the flight details and cannot be changed.
These periods see a concentration of traffic, and therefore of movements — but also of demand. We never announce availability in advance: only the offers displayed are available.
Each direction is published separately. An empty leg is a one-way flight: the presence of an offer in one direction does not mean there is one in the other, nor on the date that suits you.
On an empty leg, the price shown is for the flight itself, subject to the number of seats specified in the offer; passenger taxes are added to this depending on the number of travellers. Shared flights, on the other hand, are booked seat by seat.
This is because no operator has published a repositioning on this route at the moment. Offers appear according to operators’ needs and are withdrawn as soon as they are booked: an alert remains the most reliable way to be notified.
