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 Wings Airways
Wings Airways flies classic de Havilland Otter floatplanes from downtown Juneau's historic seaplane base, close to the cruise ship docks and hotels. It also runs the Taku Glacier Lodge, a century old wilderness lodge on the Taku River.
Its five glacier flight covers the Norris, Taku, Hole-in-the-Wall and East and West Twin glaciers flowing from the Juneau Icefield, with narration and a window seat for everyone. Its signature trip adds a landing at Taku Lodge for wild salmon grilled over an alderwood fire with glacier views, about three hours in all.
Tours are scheduled around ship departures with a back on time guarantee for cruise passengers, which makes it an easy choice for a day in port.
