Public Charters
Overview
Part 380 of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) regulations (14 CFR 380) requires all persons who wish to arrange public charter flights to first submit a charter prospectus to the Special Authorities Division with the required information about the proposed charter program. A prospectus should contain the following original documents, signed and dated by all parties involved. Filers may, at their option, submit the required documents by e-mail or fax on an advance basis, pending transmission of the signed hard-copy originals. We will begin to process applications upon receipt of all required documents and advanced fee payments(s) if applicable.
