Simpler than the airport.
Chartering in the US means renting a whole aircraft from an FAA Part 135 carrier, flown on your schedule from a private terminal (FBO).
You pay for the aircraft, not the seat, so a full light jet often costs less per person than you expect. Prices depend on flight time, where the aircraft is based and Federal excise tax.
Arrive 30 minutes before departure. There is no queue for security, no gate and no boarding call; your crew meets you at the aircraft.
Altivo Jets is a broker: we compare operators, check their certificates and safety record, and put the operator's name on your quote. We act as your agent under DOT Part 295.
One-way flights at a fraction of the price.
No empty legs are listed right now. Leave your email and we will tell you as soon as an operator posts one in the US.
