Private jet charter
Private aviation
Private jet charter, arranged by one person
Your aircraft, your airfield, your hour of departure. We search the whole charter market, tell you honestly which aircraft is right for the trip, and stay with the journey from the first call to the car waiting on the tarmac.
One concierge, 24/7
The same person holds your file from enquiry to landing, and answers at three in the morning if plans change.
Quotes in hours
Send the cities, the date and how many of you. We usually come back within four hours with two or three aircraft and an honest price for each.
The whole market
We aren't tied to one fleet, so we can quote the aircraft that is genuinely available, including empty legs about to open up.
Ways to fly
Charter, built around how you travel
From a single same-day hop to a season of flying, three ways to book with Altara.
Private client
Regular flyers: preferences kept on file, priority on every request.
Talk to us
The Altara difference
Not a booking engine. A person who knows the fleet.
- Independent. We work for you, not for an operator, so the advice is straight.
- Honest pricing. If a smaller aircraft is the better aircraft, we say so.
- Any airfield. We depart from the runway closest to you, not the nearest hub.
- Everything on the ground. Cars, catering, customs, pets and luggage, arranged before you arrive.
- Remembered. How you like to travel is kept on file, so you're never asked twice.

Onboard
The details are the whole point
The aircraft is chartered, but the cabin is dressed for you: your catering, your press, your temperature, your car at the steps on arrival. Tell us once and it's on every aircraft after that.
- Catering from the restaurant you'd choose on the ground
- Bedrooms made up on long-range aircraft
- Chauffeurs waiting at both ends
Our standards
Safety without compromise
Altara arranges flights as a broker. Every flight is operated by a licensed air carrier that holds a valid Air Operator Certificate, and before we put a client on board we check the operator's certificate, insurance, aircraft and crew.
If an operator doesn't meet the standard, we don't use them, however good the price.
