  • A UK Air Operator Certificate from the Civil Aviation Authority, held with an Operating Licence, is the approval a company needs to sell flights on its aircraft in the UK. The CAA approves the company's management, pilots, training, maintenance and aircraft, and keeps auditing it. Flights sold on aircraft outside an AOC, sometimes called grey charter, are illegal. Altivo Jets books flights only with licensed operators and names the operator on every quote. How we check operators.

Company

About Centreline

Centreline is a Bristol Airport based aviation company founded in 1989 as Bristol Flying Centre and now owned by Pula Aviation Services, with more than 30 years of experience at the airport. It runs a 24 hour FBO at Bristol that is popular for transatlantic technical stops, aircraft maintenance and continuing airworthiness management, fleet management and private jet charter.

Its air operator certificate is also used for government work: it operates the two Dassault Falcon 900LX Envoy IV aircraft flown by the RAF's 32 Squadron from Northolt for the UK Ministry of Defence under the Command Support Air Transport contract, carrying senior ministers and officials. In 2025 it sold its Capital Air Ambulance business to Gama Aviation.

Centreline holds Cyber Essentials Plus certification, publishes a net zero plan and supports Lia's Wings, a charity that flies sick children to hospital. For the South West, it is a local source of private jet charter.

Booking

How booking works with Altivo Jets

  1. 1
    Send your trip

    Route, dates, passengers and bags, plus any aircraft type you prefer.

  2. 2
    We check availability

    We ask licensed operators that can fly the trip, and compare aircraft, timing and price.

  3. 3
    Choose your aircraft

    Your quote names the operator and the aircraft before you confirm. Nothing is booked until you approve it.

  4. 4

    The operator you choose flies the trip with its own crew and keeps operational control. Altivo Jets stays your contact before, during and after the flight.

Altivo Jets is an independent air charter broker. It does not own or operate aircraft and has no agreement with Centreline. Every flight is operated by a properly licensed air carrier, which keeps operational control of the aircraft and is named on your quote.
