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 Arctic Backcountry Flying Service
Arctic Backcountry Flying Service is a family owned air taxi in Kotzebue, Alaska, above the Arctic Circle in Northwest Alaska. Its Piper Super Cub and Cessna 206 aircraft fly scheduled flights to villages across the region and beyond.
It also flies trips to the national parks of Northwest Alaska, including Kobuk Valley, the Noatak, Cape Krusenstern and the Gates of the Arctic, and drop-offs to almost any destination for hunters, rafters, hikers and researchers, landing on gravel bars and tundra strips.
For travellers exploring some of the least visited parks in the United States, a bush plane from Kotzebue is the only practical way in.
