On the Austin – Chicago route, availability shifts by the hour: an aircraft returning empty to base can be offered well below list price. Chicago Midway is terminal privé au plus près du centre-ville.

The aircraft assigned to this segment, a Embraer Phenom 300E (Light Jet, 8 passengers), covers the 1,565 km in 2 h 16 block time, with no technical stop.

Terminals and formalities at Austin and Chicago

Departure takes place from the Austin-Bergstrom International FBO: vehicle parking at the foot of the aircraft, document checks within minutes, a private lounge for accompanying guests. At Chicago, Chicago Midway follows the same approach. Allow twenty minutes before block time; luggage is loaded into the hold while you're already on board.

Aircraft alternatives on Austin – Chicago

If the Embraer Phenom 300E does not suit your passenger configuration, other airframes can be deployed on the same route: a light jet for two to six people, a super-midsize for eight to ten, a long-range aircraft when bulky luggage or sleeping berths are required. The price changes accordingly, but the repositioning-discount logic remains the same.

Confidentiality and travel security

No public passenger list, no commercial terminal, no exposure in departure lounges. Manifests remain strictly between the certified operator and the relevant authorities. For sensitive trips between Austin and Chicago, a non-disclosure agreement can be attached to the charter file on request.

What the advertised rate covers

The €9,400 figure is all-inclusive for the whole aircraft: crew, fuel, landing and parking fees, operator's insurance, standard catering and handling at both ends. Specific passenger taxes, premium catering requests and ground transfers are quoted separately and confirmed before the charter contract is issued.

Seasonality of traffic between Austin and Chicago

Demand is not linear: trade shows, holiday periods and major sporting events concentrate movements and make slots scarce. Conversely, mid-week lulls multiply empty return flights. It is precisely in these windows that the best quotes appear on this route.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the Austin – Chicago flight take?

About 2 h 16 of block time for 1,565 km, excluding taxi delays. Add around twenty minutes of departure formalities and five to ten minutes on arrival.

How far in advance should I book?

Technically, a departure can be arranged in four to six hours if an aircraft and crew are available. In practice, confirming twenty-four hours ahead secures slots at Austin and Chicago much more reliably.

Is the price per person or for the whole aircraft?

For the whole aircraft. The 8 seats of the Embraer Phenom 300E are included in the stated amount: the cost per passenger falls automatically as more travellers board.

Is EmptyFast the operator of the flight?

No. EmptyFast, a Redwood Aviation brand, acts exclusively as a matchmaking intermediary. The flight is operated by an airline holding an Air Operator's Certificate (AOC), solely responsible for operations, safety and any delays or cancellations.
