Air charter operators are essential to advancing business, serving communities, supporting the national airspace system, fostering local economies, and ensuring access where airlines cannot. With the ability to reach virtually every airport in the nation, charter operators deliver critical connectivity while enhancing system efficiency by utilizing general aviation airports and reducing congestion at busy airline hubs. Importantly, all commercial passengers—both charter and airline—pay the same percentage of federal aviation taxes on the cost of their flights, ensuring parity in support of the national airspace system.
