Online charter broker KinectAir has unveiled a new AI-powered empty leg marketplace, where operators can list their repositioning flights that would otherwise go unoccupied, making it easier for potential customers to review and access them.
The system allows users to view a variety of options from many charter providers and, according to the company, the AI-backed softwareâwhich searches empty legs from different operatorsâdoes away with time-consuming blind searches. In the systemâs interface, users can easily link two separate empty legs to create a round trip, taking an outbound flight from one operator and selecting a return from a separate operatorâs schedule. The marketplace also allows them to set notification alerts for desired route availability.
âThe way KinectAir manages repositioning flights is an industry-first, bridging the gap between private air travel and affordability and signaling a shift in how we perceive and access destination flying,â explained company co-CEO and co-founder Ben Howard. âThis is the ultimate tool for flexible and spontaneous travelers, truly democratizing private flights, making them as accessible as booking a car, and as affordable as commercial air travel.â
