  • 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.

Company

About IFR

Integrated Flight Resources was founded in 1995 with a single King Air 90 owned by a local bank, and some of its first aircraft owners are still clients. In 2005 it completed its own 28,000 square foot hangar and office at DuPage Airport in West Chicago, Illinois, where all its aircraft are based.

Its seven managed corporate aircraft range from a Citation CJ1 through a Phenom 300, Learjet 45XR and Hawker 850XP to a Challenger 604 large cabin jet. It offers charter with catering, ground arrangements and pet travel, aircraft management covering insurance, hangar, maintenance and crews, aircraft sales and acquisition, and pilot training through CAE Simuflite with in-house check airmen. Each aircraft is inspected after every trip.

DuPage has a 24 hour control tower and a longer runway than many Chicago area airports, about an hour from the Loop.
