New York is the busiest private-jet market on earth, anchored by Teterboro just minutes from Midtown. Finance, media, and a steady weekend pull toward the Hamptons and New England keep aircraft moving in and out around the clock. On the New York end, private flights usually use Teterboro (TEB) and Westchester County (HPN), boarding at a private FBO terminal rather than an airline terminal.
At 132 miles this is light jets territory: aircraft like the Embraer Phenom 300 and Cessna Citation CJ3+ have the range and cabin to fly it nonstop in about 40m. Demand out of New York peaks around fall through the winter holidays and the summer Hamptons season, when repositioning flights, and so empty legs, are most frequent.
An empty leg from New York to Albany exists because an operator has to fly the aircraft along this route anyway, to reach its next client or to return to base, so it sells that one-way flight for the whole aircraft, typically 25 to 75% below a comparable full charter. The departure time follows the operator's schedule. If your dates are fixed, a full charter on the same route lets you choose the time.
