An FAA Part 135 certificate is the approval a company needs to fly on-demand charter for hire in the United States. Before issuing it, the FAA reviews the company's manuals, pilots, training, maintenance programme and every aircraft it adds, and its inspectors keep auditing the operation. An aircraft flown privately under Part 91 cannot legally be sold to you as a charter. Altivo Jets books flights only with licensed operators and names the operator on every quote.

Company
About Air Cargo Carriers
Air Cargo Carriers is a Milwaukee, Wisconsin cargo airline that has flown air freight since 1986. It flies scheduled cargo routes within the United States and on-demand freight charters, and its crews have experience flying into Canada, the Caribbean and Mexico. It has spent more than 20 years serving the overnight express industry.
The airline is known for one aircraft family: the Shorts 330 and 360, boxy twin turboprops with a large square cabin that suits bulky freight. It says it runs the world's largest civilian fleet of Shorts aircraft, has maintained them for more than two decades and holds the largest stock of Shorts parts. Its maintenance shop also supports other Shorts operators around the world.
Beyond flying, the group sells parts, trains pilots under FAA Part 61 and Part 135, and has subsidiaries for avionics, instrument repair and calibration, and Pratt and Whitney PT6A engine overhauls. It is a member of NBAA and NATA. Its aircraft carry freight rather than passengers, so this profile is listed for reference.
