  • 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 Charter Airlines

Charter Airlines is a Fort Lauderdale, Florida charter company that has flown since 1972 and is headquartered at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport. It flies only one aircraft type, the Cessna Citation X, one of the fastest business jets ever built, and has about ten of them.

Each Citation X seats eight in a double club cabin, cruises at up to Mach 0.92 and can fly about 3,250 nautical miles. The company says that saves up to 37 minutes on a Los Angeles to New York flight compared with a typical super-midsize jet, and about 28 minutes from Fort Lauderdale to Aspen. Every flight has free high speed Wi-Fi, dispatch works around the clock and the team arranges cars, catering and reservations. It sells charter by the trip with no membership required, lists empty legs and manages aircraft for owners.

Charter Airlines holds an ARGUS Gold rating, says its pilots average more than 5,000 hours and train twice a year, and reports more than 20,000 hours without an incident, accident or violation.
