  • 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.

About Air Evac EMS

Air Evac EMS trades as Air Evac Lifeteam, part of Global Medical Response, and describes itself as the largest independently owned and operated membership supported air ambulance service in the United States. It flies helicopters from more than 150 bases across 15 states.

Its focus is rural emergency care: more than 90% of its aircraft are based in rural areas and about 84% of its transports start in places classed as rural. Each helicopter carries a pilot, a flight nurse and a flight paramedic, responding to accident and illness scenes and moving patients between hospitals seven days a week. Households can join its membership programme.

Air Evac flies medical missions rather than passenger charter, so this profile is listed for reference.

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.
