LOS ANGELES, April 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — With 25% of visitors to www.emptylegmarket.com coming from a mobile device, EmptyLegMarket — an online marketplace for empty-leg flights — officially launched today a mobile version of its website. Empty-legs are the repositioning segments on a private jet where there is no paying customer onboard, and therefore chartering an empty-leg flight comes at a significant savings: up to 50% off normal charter prices.
"Mobile is a quickly emerging as a tool used to find deals for chartering private jets," says Elliott Schwartz, Director of Operations for EmptyLegMarket, which launched the mobile version of its website to address the needs of this growing segment.
The mobile website has the same empty-leg listings that can be found on the full version of its website; however, the mobile version has been optimized for viewing on various mobile devices such as the iPhone from Apple. The search tool has been simplified to easily find available empty-legs for a given date. The contact information to reserve the empty-leg with the jet operator is clearly displayed. Once a desired empty-leg has been found a user can connect directly through the mobile website with the jet operator to agree on a departure time, price and book eliminating the need to go through a middle-man.
EmptyLegMarket expects the percentage of visitors using mobile devices to continue to rise and will be focusing on this growing trend.
