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.
