About Ravello Jets

Every trip reviewed by someone who flies.

Most charter brokers check a box. We sit a commercial pilot at the table. Before any trip reaches you, it has been reviewed for crew duty limits, runway performance, weather exposure, and repositioning logic by someone who holds the same certificates as the crew flying the aircraft.

The Pilot Standard

A commercial pilot reviews every trip.

This is not a marketing claim. It is how we operate. A member of our team who holds a commercial pilot certificate reviews every flight we arrange before it is presented to the client. The review covers four areas that most brokerage desks overlook entirely.

Crew Duty Limits

Multi-leg itineraries push crew toward their regulatory duty-time limits. We review the proposed schedule against Part 135 duty and rest requirements to flag trips where crew fatigue could force a cancellation or overnight stop that the operator has not accounted for.

Runway Performance

Not every aircraft can serve every airport. We verify that the proposed aircraft can operate safely from the requested airports at the expected weights, accounting for runway length, elevation, temperature, and obstacle clearance on departure.

Weather Exposure

Seasonal weather patterns, convective activity, icing conditions, and low-visibility approaches affect flight safety and scheduling. We evaluate weather exposure for every routing and advise on realistic timing, alternate airports, and contingency planning.

Repositioning Logic

Where an aircraft is positioned before your flight affects cost, crew rest, and departure reliability. We review repositioning legs to ensure the proposed schedule is operationally sound and that you are not paying for unnecessary ferry flights.

Operator Verification

Five checks. No exceptions.

Every operating carrier we arrange flights with must clear a five-point verification before we will present them to a client. This is the same checklist summarized on our homepage, expanded so you can see exactly what each step involves.

  • Certificate verification. We confirm the operator holds a current FAA Part 135 certificate (or the foreign equivalent, such as a Canadian AOC or EASA AOC) and that the specific aircraft tail number is listed on that certificate. Expired, surrendered, or restricted certificates are automatic disqualifiers.
  • Insurance confirmation. We verify that the operator carries hull and liability insurance that meets or exceeds the minimums required for the aircraft type and mission. We confirm coverage is current and that policy limits are appropriate for the passenger count and routing.
  • Third-party safety rating. We review the operator's standing with recognized third-party safety auditors, including ARG/US, Wyvern, and IS-BAO. While a safety rating alone is not sufficient, it provides an independent baseline against which we measure the operator's safety management system.
  • Pilot review of the trip. A commercial pilot on our team reviews the specific trip for crew duty limits, runway performance, weather exposure, and repositioning logic. This step catches operational risks that paperwork alone cannot reveal.
  • Operator named before you commit. We disclose the operating carrier in your quote so you know exactly who will be flying the aircraft before you make a financial commitment. We believe you have a right to know who is responsible for your flight, and we never hide operator identity behind a generic "TBA."

Why a Broker

We do not own aircraft. That is the point.

A charter operator sells seats on the aircraft it owns. A broker sources from the entire market. When we arrange a flight, we are not limited to a single fleet, a single base, or a single maintenance schedule. We can match every trip to the right aircraft, the right operator, and the right price because we are not locked into selling our own metal.

Access to the Full Market

We source aircraft from a network of verified Part 135 operators across North America and worldwide. If a better aircraft is available for your mission at a better price, we find it. An operator can only offer what it owns.

No Conflict of Interest

We do not have a fleet to fill. Our only incentive is to find the right aircraft for your trip. If an operator does not meet our verification standard, we move on to the next. There is no pressure to sell you a seat on a specific tail number.

Transparency by Design

We name the operating carrier in every quote. You know who is flying the aircraft before you commit. This level of disclosure is required by Part 295 and it is a practice we believe every broker should follow without exception.

Cross-Border Expertise

Canada–U.S. corridor specialists.

Cross-border private aviation between Canada and the United States involves regulatory requirements that domestic-only brokers frequently mishandle. We have built our practice around this corridor and understand the compliance landscape in detail.

Customs and Immigration

Private flights crossing the Canada–U.S. border must clear customs at designated airports of entry. We coordinate arrival slots, ensure the correct facility is available, and advise on airports with pre-clearance and CANPASS availability to minimize ground time.

eAPIS and CBSA Compliance

U.S.-bound flights require advance passenger information through CBP's eAPIS system. Canadian-bound flights require advance notification to the CBSA. We ensure passenger manifests are filed accurately and within the required time windows for every cross-border routing.

Cabotage and Bilateral Rules

A Canadian-registered aircraft generally cannot carry passengers between two U.S. points, and vice versa. We structure multi-stop itineraries to comply with cabotage restrictions and bilateral aviation agreements, avoiding last-minute routing changes that can disrupt your schedule.
