How a broker works for you.
Trust
01
Brief the trip
Route, dates, passengers, and preferences, a good broker turns that into a precise aircraft spec.
02
Source the operator
Brokers shop your trip across FAA Part 135 operators, comparing aircraft, positioning, and price.
03
Verify, then fly
The operator on the certificate flies you. Check their safety ratings and reviews here before you sign.
Ask any broker which Part 135 operator will fly your trip, then look them up on the operator register.
WOW!! What a great day flying! I did a first time test flight (really not for myself but for my daughter who is interested in a career as a pilot). I honestly thought it was going to be a bit boring, because there’s so much that goes into being a pilot. I was so wrong! I left wanting to become a Pilot myself! This was so much fun! I can’t wait for my daughter to start her lessons. Brian would be my first pick, he’s incredibly patient and excellent at explaining complex subjects. Completely enjoyed the lesson absolutely a 10 out of 10!!!

Congrats you found a super awesome flight school!
I just had my first flight with Bryan. He is probably the best coach you can imagine. Super impressed how well the course is organized and how thoughtful Bryan is. He went above and beyond making sure my family is happy too.
Awesome lounge experience too, btw! Thank you Bryan!
Highly recommended!
