  • 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 Hightail It

Hightail IT is a private jet charter company based at Chicago Executive Airport in Wheeling, Illinois, the main business aviation airport on Chicago's northern suburbs. It flies a Hawker 800XP, a midsize jet that seats up to eight passengers and has the range for nonstop trips across much of the United States.

The company says it flies nationwide, coast to coast and international trips, and that no destination is too far. It plans custom charters from simple point to point flights to multi leg and international itineraries, and coordinates ground and air travel together, with expedited departures and flexible scheduling. It says every flight comes with concierge service.

The company cites decades of aviation experience and describes its maintenance checks and operating protocols as central to how it flies. The Hawker 800XP is known for its spacious cabin for its class, with a large baggage hold and a cabin long enough for club seating and a side facing divan.

Chicago Executive sits closer to the North Shore and the northern suburbs than O'Hare, with less congestion and quick access for passengers. From there, a Hawker can reach New York, Florida, Texas or Colorado nonstop.
