Palms vs. “Empty Legs”
The “empty leg” market is quite active along the New York – Florida corridor. Palms Jet Pass is positioned to essentially offer the same pricing advantages of empty legs, without the hassles.
- Guaranteed Aircraft Availability – with one call and 24 hours’ notice, Palms Jet Pass members have access to best-in-class aircraft at a competitive price. Conversely, empty legs are never guaranteed – your departure time and aircraft availability are subject to a host of gating factors: mechanical failures, upline flights, and the ability of the original charter customer to stick to his schedule.
- Complimentary Deluxe Catering – instead of soft drinks and potato chips, Palms Jet Pass customers may order free-of-charge from our deluxe catering menu.
- 24 Hour Cancellation – book flights with confidence. Instead of the 100% cancellation penalty associated with empty legs, Palms customers may cancel or change a flight with 24 hours’ notice
