The Bombardier Challenger 300 Empty Leg Map: 24,713 Legs and Where They Fly
The Bombardier Challenger 300 logged 24,713 empty-leg listings on SkyAccess over a rolling 12-month window of listings, ranking it among the most active super-midsize jets in the marketplace. If you need an empty leg with a full nine-passenger cabin and intercontinental reach, the Challenger 300 is the model to watch.
What the Challenger 300 is built for
Bombardier’s Challenger 300 is a super-midsize jet with a stand-up cabin that seats up to nine passengers. Certified for coast-to-coast US flights without a fuel stop, it handles the demanding New York-to-Miami and Los Angeles-to-Mountain West corridors that appear repeatedly in SkyAccess listing data. Operators favor the type for high-cycle charter schedules; the deadhead return from each revenue trip becomes an empty-leg listing, which is why supply appears reliably across the lower 48 states and into Canada and the Caribbean.
Where the legs originate
Teterboro Airport (KTEB) in the New York metro leads all Challenger 300 origin airports with 1,574 departures, according to SkyAccess data. Miami’s Opa-locka Executive Airport (KOPF) follows at 896, and Van Nuys Airport (KVNY) in the Los Angeles metro at 870. The remaining top-ten origin airports are West Palm Beach (611), Las Vegas (461), White Plains (431), Dallas Love Field (404), Scottsdale (399), Bedford (383), and Austin (364).
This concentration in ten airports reflects the fleet-basing strategy of charter operators: aircraft live where demand peaks, and the empties flow outbound from there. On SkyAccess, the empty leg marketplace, each departure represents the whole aircraft rather than individual seats, so a Teterboro-to-Miami Challenger 300 leg means all nine passenger positions for one price.
The cross-region corridors it flies
The Northeast-to-Southeast corridor is the busiest cross-region flow in the data, with New York metro airports connecting to Miami-area airports in both directions. The Pacific Coast to the Mountain West is the second major corridor, with Los Angeles metro departures appearing frequently toward Jackson Hole, Salt Lake City, and Scottsdale. Caribbean routes out of South Florida add international volume, with Nassau, San Juan, and the Turks and Caicos appearing in the listing record.
European operations are a smaller but visible slice of the data. UK-to-Continental routing between London and Swiss, German, and Polish airports reflects the Challenger 300’s appeal in the European charter market, where the aircraft’s range and cabin size position it similarly to how it operates in North America.
How to read the 24,713 number
SkyAccess’s rolling 12-month window of listings admits future-dated legs as well as those that departed within the period. The 24,713 figure is a cumulative flow of listings posted and updated in the marketplace over the measurement window, not a count of legs available right now. It establishes the Challenger 300 as one of the highest-volume types in the super-midsize segment on the platform.
SkyAccess currently carries 5,000+ live empty-leg listings from more than 900 FAA Part 135 certified operators. Challenger 300 flights represent a meaningful share of that inventory, priced at 25 to 75 percent below comparable on-demand charter because the operator is recovering repositioning costs rather than pricing for profit.
