FAA charter certificate.

Always ask for the

charter certificate

number and verify it

with the FAA before

booking. If a company cannot produce this, you should book

elsewhere. Legitimate operators are insured to carry passengers

and their pilots fly a minimum of two FAA check-rides annually.

Additionally, licensed charter aircraft are maintained at a

much higher standard than those doing business without FAA

certification.

2. If a pilot or a student pilot claims they can fly you to your

destination for a fraction of the cost, run the other way! These

types of companies are able to “cut you a deal” because they are

not legitimate charter operators. Why trust your life, the lives

of your executives and/or your family to a pilot that is doing

something illegal?

3. Select the charter aircraft that is right for your needs. A piston

plane is great for short flights. A turbo prop is pressurized and ideal

for mid-range trips and flying above any inclement weather. A jet

is best for long-range and quick trips, when needing to reach a

destination but also return home the same day.

4. Charter prices are based on several things: aircraft, distance

between airports, time spent on the ground, landing and handling

fees,segment fees,Federal Excise Tax,as well as the number of pilots

you would like on your flight.

5. Call us today for a free quote before booking. Charters are

typically more expensive than commercial airlines; however, we fly

to thousands of airports, not just the larger airports like scheduled

airlines do.And,with a charter flight,you choose the departure time,

arrive a few minutes prior then get on the plane and go! Hassle

free, convenient, time saving and private! Bags and pets fly free and

snacks are included!

We would be honored to customize your trip on any of our

piston, turbo prop and jet aircraft! Just give us a call.
