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 FlyTAC

Taughannock Aviation trades as FlyTAC and was established in 1980 in Ithaca, New York, where it runs the FBO at Ithaca Tompkins International Airport. It describes itself as one of the largest air charter companies in the Northeast.

Its charter fleet runs from Hawker 800XP midsize jets to Gulfstream GIV and GV large cabin jets, which can fly nonstop from upstate New York to Europe or the West Coast. It also offers aircraft management with crews, heated hangars, insurance and scheduling, maintenance and avionics, and sells ground support equipment.

FlyTAC displays ARGUS, IS-BAO and Wyvern credentials. For Cornell visitors and Finger Lakes travellers, it offers long range jets from a small regional airport.

Booking

How booking works with Altivo Jets

1
Send your trip
Route, dates, passengers and bags, plus any aircraft type you prefer.
2
We check availability
We ask licensed operators that can fly the trip, and compare aircraft, timing and price.
3
Choose your aircraft
Your quote names the operator and the aircraft before you confirm. Nothing is booked until you approve it.
4
Fly
The operator you choose flies the trip with its own crew and keeps operational control. Altivo Jets stays your contact before, during and after the flight.

Altivo Jets is an independent air charter broker. It does not own or operate aircraft and has no agreement with FlyTAC. Every flight is operated by a properly licensed air carrier, which keeps operational control of the aircraft and is named on your quote.
