About Direct Airways
Direct Airways is an FAA Part 135 charter operator based at St. Simons Island, Georgia, and its repositioning flights appear on SkyAccess as empty leg charter opportunities for travelers chasing one-way value. An empty leg is the one-way segment a jet flies without passengers between trips, and SkyAccess lists Direct Airways' empty legs so flexible travelers can buy that capacity at a discount.
Based on coastal Georgia, Direct Airways combines jet speed with the field flexibility to reach smaller airfields across the region.
From its coastal Georgia base, Direct Airways' empty legs naturally run across the Southeast and along routes throughout the United States as the aircraft reposition. Flexible travelers who adjust a date or use a nearby airport capture the best one-way empty leg pricing. Every empty leg is operated under the same FAA Part 135 certificate, with the same professional crews and maintenance program behind Direct Airways' full charters, so only the price and one-way timing change.
