You just looked at the top listing? There's Angel Flight West, Angel Flight Australia, Angelflight.coms, Angelflights.org, and many other organizations organizing seats for needy patients that describe themselves as angel flights. Angel flights are a genre. Not a single entity. The company I worked for in Midland Texas offered empty seats to locals who needed to fly to Houston for treatment that they couldn't get locally at that time ('90s). The planes were going that way every day anyway. And it cost virtually nothing to add a passenger and we got a tax break and great community PR. I guaranty you that some corporation like BP is flying virtually empty corporate jets from BKK to LHR. When I worked for BP's predecessor in the USA, we had a huge fleet that flew all over, many times with half a dozen passengers, even on a full size jet. I used to have to ride on them myself if my travel plans coincided with a corporate flight. (It sounds more exotic and fun than it really is.) That's the first schedule our internal corporate travel department looked at when we asked them to book us a flight.
