Bankair, Inc. is a private jet charter operator based in West Columbia, SC with a home base at KCAE.

Operators fly under their own FAA Part 135 certificate and carry direct operational control of every flight.
In their words
Bankair has been in the airline business for over thirty-five years. Nettie Dickerson started the business in 1972 in service for local banks (therefore the name). The small company grew rapidly in the check transportation business and decided to expand into commuter passenger service in 1975 by providing regional passenger service in South Carolina and in nearby surrounding states. In 1984 Bankair qualified for and was awarded a federal contract by the Federal Reserve Bank to fly the nation’s checks between the many Federal Reserve Banks.
Because of this, Bankair decided to drop the commuter portion of our flying and concentrate on the new federal contract. This new federal contract enabled Bankair to move from a solely southeastern airline to one that now traveled most of the U.S. During this time we added LearJet and Mitsubishi aircraft and maintained a fleet of over 30 aircraft. Bankair has averaged more than 12,000 takeoffs and landings EACH YEAR for the last 24 years.
We are now pleased to offer charter Learjet service to you and your company to any destination in the Western Hemisphere. Our eight-passenger jet, the Lear 35A, is fast, efficient, and comfortable with one of the best safety records in the business.

I called inquiring about plane use for a film and James was very rude. He started to tell me about when they let someone else use it for a film then acted as if I was those people which obviously left the bed mark. Then he rushed me off the phone and said I got to take care of something. Mind you our conversation may not even lasted a whole minute. I simply just call and ask about use of a plane for a film and different ways that I could possibly make it happen, that's it.

Jason and the guys over at Bankair are amazing. I was in for a mechanical on a jet and they came through in no time. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Very fair pricing and even better people. Thanks!
