Why Should I use a Charter Broker?
Brokers arrange charters through their contacts with multiple fleet operators, providing a large pool and a wide variety of aircraft to offer customers, offering many more options than any single fleet operator can. Quality brokers can also arrange charter flights anywhere in the world, simplifying your access to the entire globe.
Charter brokers vary widely in their experience and service levels, as do their prices and fees, booking policies, and other important details. Comparing the differences among brokers you’re thinking about working with will help you make the best choice.
What Should I Consider When Choosing a Charter Broker?
Surprisingly, air charter brokers require no licensing or certification, and the field is largely unregulated. Anyone can host a website with enticing graphics and declare themselves a charter broker, without having any qualifications, training, oversight, or background check, in a business where single transactions easily run into tens of thousands of dollars or more.
But delivering consistent, high-quality charter experiences takes more than a website and a cell phone. It takes experience, knowledge, ethics, best practices, teamwork, great relationships and contacts, and great customer service. That makes it imperative to know the history and qualifications of a charter provider before you book your first flight. Consider these factors —
What is Jet Charter?
Jet charter is a paid private aircraft flight conducted under the regulatory authorization, arranged to meet the personalized travel needs of one or more customers. These bookings are also called Part 135 flights in the U.S. (for Part 135 of the FAA’s Federal Air Regulations, which govern charter flights), as well as “on-demand,” or “ad-hoc” charter, signifying the customized, unscheduled nature of these trips. Air charter allows travelers to choose the most suitable aircraft and schedule for each trip, without any financial commitment beyond the one flight, making this a flexible and economical access option. Charter does not, however, provide guaranteed access; during times of peak demand, few or no aircraft may be available for charter, and/or pricing may be significantly higher.
Who Invented Jet Charter?
No single individual started the air charter business. The roots of today’s charter industry go back to aviation’s Golden Era of the 1930s, when aircraft like the Spartan Executive and Howard DGA, with their sumptuous interiors, were favored by business leaders who appreciated the “go where you want when you want” freedom they afforded. Corporate aircraft use spread in the post-War years as many former military transports such as the Beechcraft B-18 and Douglas C-47 (the U.S. military version of the DC-3) were converted into executive transports.
Private jet charter began to appear in the early 1960s with the introduction of the first business jets, including the Lockheed JetStar and Learjet, but the fleet and charter availability was limited. It wasn’t until the 1990s that charter access really began to expand as the number of business jets, management companies, charter brokers, and other providers established the critical mass the field needed to grow. Meanwhile, the internet enabled simplified charter scheduling and booking across multiple fleets, even as new forms of access — fractional ownership, jet cards, and fleet membership programs — further expanded travelers’ available lift options, which served to create even more demand across all of them.
Today charter customers have a choice of chartered jets from among a global fleet exceeding 15,000 business aircraft, and thousands of brokerages that can book a flight, though the quality of the aircraft, and the brokerage services, can vary greatly.
