How these figures are measured
Every listing on the Solusjet empty-leg board is recorded within the hour it first appears, with its asking price, aircraft, route and departure date. This report counts each listing once, in the month it was first recorded, at the price first shown.
Prices are asking prices for the whole aircraft in US dollars, as listed. 10 listings priced in other currencies are left out rather than converted. Price per seat divides the asking price by the seats the listing offers.
Notice is measured from the day a listing first appeared on our board to its departure date.
The board reflects the inventory of the operator network we work with, not the whole private aviation market.
