I'd like to book a ride as a passenger on some of Europe's smaller charter airlines as (substantially) a scheduled passenger. I'm looking only for a flight - no accommodation required and I don't want to pay for 7 nights in a hotel either. I'm not limited to a specific route - happy to try to build a trip around the obscure charter airline. I accept bookings must usually be made via the company chartering the aircraft rather than the airline and the legal position can sometimes be slightly uncertain. I also understand that holiday companies find package holidays more profitable than a oneway flight and prioritise accordingly - thus I'm looking mainly, but not exclusively, at cases of scheduled airlines which hire charters to provide additional fleet capacity over the summer.
I know that looking at specific aircraft registrations from airfleets.net combined with flightradar24 can be a starting point to see which routes a charter airline has been paid to fly but this is a somewhat limited tool.
Are there any other ways to identify ways to fly for modest cost on charter airlines in Europe ?
