One-way pricing
One-way pricing is a charter quote that charges only for the occupied sector, with no return or repositioning cost added. Historically most charters were priced as round trips from the aircraft's base, so a single London–Ibiza flight could cost nearly as much as flying there and back. Operators with floating fleets, and brokers who chain one customer's outbound with another's return, can now offer true one-way rates on busy corridors such as New York–Florida, London–Geneva or Dubai–Riyadh. Ask explicitly whether a quote is one-way or includes a hidden return. On thin routes, one-way pricing may simply not be available and the round-trip price is what you will pay.
