Talk:Charter airline

Charter flight needs to be merged into this seglea 19:30, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Having done many searches for refs for this article I have to agree. I can find no refs at all in the regulations anywhere that even define charter. I have been through the Canadian CARs, US FARs, Aeronautics Act and even several aeronautical dictionaries and glossaries. Other refs simply quote this Wikipedia article and so I have found no WP:RS at all to even show that this topic is notable. The best solution I can see is to rediect this to Air charter. - Ahunt (talk) 13:25, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Lacking any objections I will go ahead and do this. - Ahunt (talk) 13:44, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

List of operators

Is this list necessary, possible to maintain, and/or encyclopedic? It's getting incredibly long and it's at the point where nobody's going to read it and the operators are unverifiable. I think either it should be removed, trimmed down to the top 3-5 in the country, or split into a separate article like List of Charter air carriers or something. Thoughts?

DChip, I agree. There are many Web sites out there with lists of verifiable charter companies, however most require a subscription of some kind. If you would like to scrape the information from my site (free and not looking for a link) please feel free to do so http://www.legfind.com/SiteMap.aspx?SiteMap=Operators or this site from the FAA (US operators only) http://av-info.faa.gov/data/utilization/200603OPERATOR.PDF. Some other sites you might want to add to Air Charter or Charter Airline: http://www.asy.faa.gov/safety_products/charter.htm http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/field_offices/fsdo/grr/local_more/media/How%20to%20Charter%20an%20Aircraft.pdf, http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/examiners_inspectors/8400/media/volume2/2_006_01. A seperate list would be appropriate Private_Jet_Charter.

Charters still exist?

I just hit this page to see if there was any real definition of a charter airline still.

I think the headline of it should be that there's not really any such thing anymore. There are no airlines that won't sell you a ticket anymore.

There are probably more charter companies than regular scheduled airlines in northern Canada. World wide operators (in the North that offer scheduled and charter services) include First Air, Kenn Borek Air, Air Tindi. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 03:19, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
