F.A.Q.
Ultimate Air Shuttle flights are public charters sold through PublicCharters.com and operated by Ultimate Jet Charters as direct air carrier. These charter flights are subject to Department of Transportation Public Charter Regulations. Please go to our F.A.Q. for more information on public charter flights.
Public Charters are a way of providing air transportation services that are subject to Department of Transportation regulations. These regulations, published in Title 14 CFR Part 380, provide enhanced consumer protection by specifying minimum contract terms and imposing requirements for handling of passenger funds.
Your reservation for an Ultimate Air Shuttle flight will be handled by PublicCharters.com, which acts as the charter operator. You will receive a public charter contract when you purchase your ticket. The air carrier that performs Ultimate Air Shuttle flights is Ultimate Jet Charters, Inc. As the direct air carrier, Ultimate Jet Charters is responsible for all aspects of the flight services.
The Department of Transportation advises passengers that:
“Charter flights can provide excellent value, and they often operate nonstop in markets where scheduled flights would be less direct. In addition, many charters don’t have all of the restrictions of scheduled service discount fares, e.g., advance-purchase, stay over a Saturday night, stay no more than 30 days, etc. Finally, most charter fares are not “capacity-controlled” like scheduled-service discount fares; every seat on the airplane is usually available at the advertised fare. “

- The quoted fare includes all taxes and fees – no need to look through the fine print for add-ons that increase your fare
- No baggage fees
- No cancellation penalty for changes made at least 24 hours in advance
- Late check-in up to 15 minutes before time of departure
