Empty leg flights from Seattle to Vancouver
Empty leg flights from Seattle to Vancouver cover roughly 122 miles (196 km) — a short hop flown northbound in about 40m nonstop by private jet. When an operator already has an aircraft repositioning on this corridor, that one-way seat sells as an empty leg at a fraction of the retail charter price.

Seattle's private demand is led by tech and aerospace, flowing largely through Boeing Field. California business runs and summer Pacific-Northwest leisure shape the calendar. Vancouver blends Pacific-Northwest business travel with gateway access to Whistler's ski resorts. Demand mixes corporate flying with a winter ski overlay.
Most Seattle–Vancouver private traffic moves through dedicated business-aviation airports rather than the crowded commercial terminals. On the Seattle end that means Boeing Field/King County International (BFI) and Seattle-Tacoma International (SEA); arrivals into Vancouver favor Vancouver International (YVR). Flying these FBO-served fields means curb-to-cabin in minutes and no main-terminal queues on either side.
At 122 miles this is squarely light jets territory — aircraft like the Embraer Phenom 300 and Cessna Citation CJ3+ have the range and cabin to fly it comfortably nonstop, which is why they make up most of the empty-leg supply on the route. Demand peaks around the summer season and the fall tech-business calendar out of Seattle and the winter Whistler ski season and the summer into Vancouver, when repositioning flights — and therefore empty legs — are most frequent.
