About us
Why Altessair exists.
Charter should feel like working with a good advisor: someone who knows the market, checks the details, and tells you the truth about price.
The short version
We built the brokerage we'd want to hire.
Altessair started with a simple observation from inside the industry: most people chartering a jet never talk to anyone who understands the aircraft, the operators, or the market rate for their trip. They get a call center, a markup, and a shrug.
Every request here is sourced by a person with industry relationships. Every operator we use holds an FAA Part 135 certificate, current insurance, and a safety record we check ourselves. Every quote states its price and validity window — and we put in writing that we're the broker, not the airline.
Who you'll deal with
Two founders. No call center.

What we hold ourselves to
Standards we check before you ever board.
FAA Part 135, verified
Every flight we arrange is performed by a certificated direct air carrier. We check the certificate ourselves before an operator enters our network.
Insurance, current
Coverage is confirmed and tracked per operator, with expiry dates on file. Certificates of insurance available on request.
Safety ratings, on file
ARGUS, WYVERN, and IS-BAO standings recorded where held — third-party audit trails, not our word alone.
A person, not a portal
Your request is sourced by a broker with industry relationships — co-founded by a licensed pilot who came up through charter.
