Had the good fortune to charter from these folks and I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of service I received. From the front office to the pilot and maintenance staff, everyone seems to work as a cohesive unit. Our trip went perfectly and you can tell that these folks have been doing this a long time. All of their aircraft appear to be in fabulous shape and the communication up to and beyond the trip was wonderful. As far as I am concerned, they set the bar!
