Empty legs appear when an operator repositions an aircraft, usually only a few days ahead. They are gone within hours. The reliable way to catch one is to be told the moment it lists.

A seasonal ski-and-summer route into a demanding mountain airport. Aspen's short runway and altitude limit which aircraft can serve it, so Chicago to Aspen empty legs are prized and move quickly in winter.
Because Chicago and Aspen sit on such a well-travelled lane, operators regularly need to reposition aircraft in both directions — and a repositioning flight with empty seats is exactly what becomes an empty leg. The result is a steady stream of discounted one-way flights for travellers whose dates are flexible.
