What’s the difference between a charter organization and a private aviation broker?
Charter brokers, unlike charter operators, are not regulated by the FAA or Department of Transportation. However, brokers are required to notify potential customers that they are not certified operators, nor do they own their fleets. Brokers may either work on behalf of passengers to secure a plane or plane owners to generate revenue when an aircraft is not in operation. Brokers may also connect plane owners with potential customers for a fee.
