Low integrity operator who lacks transparency. In my case they intentionally obfuscated a 1k pet fee until cancellation window was closed in order to retain the booking. Avoid this operator at all costs.

Have respect for not only the individuals that charter your planes, but also for the individuals and families whose quality of life is impacted by your planes flying over head at 2 AM and 4 AM in the morning.
