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. How we check operators.
About FRESH AIR AVIATION
Fresh Air Aviation was founded in 2004 and calls itself northern Michigan's trusted air service, with bases in Charlevoix, on Beaver Island and in St. Ignace. Its twin engine Partenavia P68 and Britten-Norman Islander aircraft fly on-demand air taxi flights to the islands every day, with no fixed timetable.
Its main routes link Charlevoix with Beaver Island and St. Ignace with Mackinac Island, where cars are banned, carrying passengers, luggage and freight, with boat dock shuttles arranged on arrival. It also flies private charters across the Great Lakes and Midwest, connections to airline flights and air tours, and sends text alerts for weather delays.
For island residents and visitors, a flight of a few minutes replaces a long ferry crossing, especially when lake ice closes the boats.
