The Air Operator Certificate (CTA) from the Direction générale de l'Aviation civile is the approval a company needs to fly commercial charter. The regulator approves its pilots, training, maintenance and aircraft before they carry paying passengers, and audits the operation. Altivo Jets books flights only with licensed operators and names the operator on every quote. How we check operators.
