Fort Lauderdale Executive is one of the densest business-aviation fields in South Florida and the yachting capital's preferred arrival point. It shares the Gold Coast's winter surge with neighboring Miami and Palm Beach. On the Fort Lauderdale end, private flights usually use Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International (FLL), boarding at a private FBO terminal rather than an airline terminal.
At 195 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 50m. Demand into Fort Lauderdale peaks around the December to April winter season and boat-show weeks, when repositioning flights, and so empty legs, are most frequent.
An empty leg from St. Petersburg to Fort Lauderdale 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.
