Before you book a charter
- Ask which company will have operational control of your flight, and check that company on the charter operator check.
- Ask for the aircraft's registration and confirm with the operator that it is on their Part 135 certificate.
- A broker who sells you a flight is not the operator. The operator is the company that holds the certificate.
