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 Kantishna Air Taxi
Kantishna Air Taxi is an exclusive National Park Service concessionaire and the only air operator based inside Denali National Park and Preserve, at the end of the Denali Park Road about 20 miles north of the mountain's north face. It runs Skyline Lodge, a small solar powered lodge inside the park.
Its Cessna 206 aircraft fly flightseeing tours around Denali, including the Grand Ascent, day trips into Kantishna, overnight fly-in and fly-out stays at the lodge with hiking and biking, and charter and custom air taxi trips statewide.
Kantishna Air and Skyline Lodge are closed for the 2026 season because the park road is closed at mile 43, and the company is planning a fly-in, fly-out model, so travellers should check its plans for future seasons.
