Private aviation moves fast. We respond faster.
A private jet charter broker is an independent aviation specialist who arranges charter flights on behalf of clients by sourcing aircraft from third-party operators across the market. Brokers do not own aircraft. They have no fleet to fill and no inventory to push.
Based in Minneapolis, The Aeris Agency serves executives, families, and family offices across the Twin Cities and throughout the United States. When you contact us, we search the entire charter market for the right aircraft for your mission, comparing options across hundreds of FAR Part 135 certified operators on price, aircraft condition, positioning, and safety record. We manage every detail of the flight from booking through wheels-down. You tell us where you need to be and when — we handle the rest.
This independence is the fundamental advantage. A charter operator can only offer you what's in their fleet. A broker with access to the entire market can always find the best option for your specific trip, not just the one that's convenient for them.
The Aeris Agency is an ARGUS Certified and Wyvern-approved brokerage. Two of the highest safety certifications in the industry. Every operator we work with is independently vetted for safety record, maintenance standards, and crew training before a single client boards their aircraft. We arrange flights from any U.S. departure airport domestically and internationally for clients across the country.

Not all charter brokers operate the same way. Some are affiliated with operators and will steer you toward their preferred aircraft regardless of fit. The Aeris Agency is fully independent, we work for the client, and only the client.
We have no fleet, no operators to favor, and no aircraft to fill. Every aircraft we recommend is chosen because it is the best fit for your trip on price, safety, and logistics. Nothing else influences the recommendation.
We operate under the ARGUS Certified Broker and Wyvern-approved standards. The two most recognized safety certifications in private aviation. Every operator we contract with is independently vetted for safety, maintenance, and crew training before a single client boards.
We know aviation not just bookings. From airport selection and FBO choices to operator positioning and routing efficiency, we bring hands-on knowledge to every trip. That operational depth is what separates a trusted advisor from a booking desk.
With access to thousands of FAR Part 135 certified aircraft across hundreds of operators nationwide, we are never constrained by inventory. During peak travel periods ski season, winter migration, holidays when operators' fleets are full, we still find you the right aircraft.
We provide all-in quotes that account for repositioning, daily minimums, taxes, landing fees, and any additional costs before you commit. No hidden fees, no surprises on the invoice. You know exactly what you're paying before the aircraft moves.
We're not just a booking desk. We advise aircraft owners, evaluate management companies, consult on purchases and sales, design complete travel itineraries, and provide pre-trip intelligence for high-profile travelers. The relationship extends beyond any single flight.

Time-sensitive travel for CEOs, presidents, and senior leadership. Board meetings, client visits, deal closings, and multi-city trips where commercial schedules simply don't work. Discretion is non-negotiable.

Ongoing aviation advisory and charter coordination for family principals, staff, and extended family members. We become your aviation department available on demand, managing every flight without requiring your team to become aviation experts.
Hunting lodge charters, golf trips, corporate retreats, and client entertainment travel. Group pricing, seamless logistics, and the right aircraft for every mission whether it's a King Air to a South Dakota pheasant lodge or a heavy jet moving your leadership team coast to coast.
Private charter for patients and families traveling to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Cleveland Clinic, MD Anderson, and other specialized medical centers. Time-sensitive, comfort-focused, and coordinated around medical schedules not airline timetables.
Group charters for professional and collegiate teams, individual athletes, and their representation. Equipment logistics, tight turnaround schedules, and multiple aircraft coordinated simultaneously when needed.
Portfolio company visits, deal roadshows, and investor meetings across multiple cities in a single day. Private aviation is the only way to run an aggressive deal schedule without burning out your team on commercial connections.

A charter operator owns and flies aircraft they can only offer what's in their fleet. A charter broker like The Aeris Agency is independent and has access to hundreds of operators and thousands of aircraft. We find the best option for your specific trip on price, safety, and positioning not just what's available in one company's inventory.
Private jet charter typically starts around $5,000 to $7,000 per hour for a turboprop, $6,000 to $9,000 per hour for a light jet, 9,000 to $12,000 per hour for midsize and super midsize jets, and $13,000 to $15,000 per hour for heavy jets. Ultra long range jets start around $16,000 to $21,000+ per hour. Final pricing varies by aircraft type, route, season, and availability.
For groups of four or more, private jet charter is often comparable to first-class commercial tickets when you factor in time saved, flexibility, and the ability to fly direct to smaller airports. A turboprop split among six passengers can cost less per seat than a last-minute business class fare on a connecting flight.
Most private jet charters can be arranged within 24 to 72 hours for standard requests. Same-day flights are possible depending on aircraft availability. Peak travel periods, ski season, major holidays, and popular event weekends require more lead time, typically one to two weeks in advance for the best aircraft options.
Yes. Pets fly in the cabin with you on private charter flights no cargo holds, no crates under the aircraft. Notify your Aeris advisor in advance so we can confirm pet accommodations with the operator.
ARGUS Certified Broker status means the brokerage has been independently audited and verified against rigorous safety, compliance, and operational standards. Every operator an ARGUS Certified broker contracts with is vetted for safety record, maintenance standards, and crew training before a client boards. The Aeris Agency is both ARGUS Certified and Wyvern-approved.
Yes. We arrange private jet charter flights domestically and internationally. We manage all international permits, customs coordination, handling fees, and special documentation required for the destination country. Our clients fly to destinations worldwide from any U.S. departure airport.
AOG (Aircraft On Ground) means the aircraft is grounded due to a mechanical issue. As a broker with access to the full market, we are never dependent on a single aircraft. If your confirmed aircraft goes AOG, we immediately source a comparable replacement. Clients also have access to FlightGuard™, an optional mechanical recovery program that reimburses up to 50% of the original trip cost with no deductible.
