Mykonos airport is small, slot-constrained and closed at night in summer. Empty legs into the island need confirming early because the arrival slot is often the limiting factor, not the aircraft.
Many summer itineraries chain Mykonos with Athens or Santorini, so the empty leg on offer may start or end at Athens rather than Mykonos itself. Athens is a forty-minute hop away and often a cheaper place to pick up a jet.

Can an empty leg flight be cancelled?
Yes. An empty leg exists only because of another customer’s booking. If that customer changes date or route, or cancels, the empty leg may be rescheduled or withdrawn. Refund terms are set out in your charter agreement, and consequential costs such as hotels or replacement flights are not normally covered. Check the terms before you pay. No audited industry cancellation rate is published.
Do you pay per seat or for the whole aircraft?
Almost always the whole aircraft. An empty leg on an eight-seat jet costs the same for one passenger or eight, which is why empty legs work best for groups. A few operators and apps sell single seats on selected flights; where that applies, the listing says so.
