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 Charter Airlines

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.
