Going beyond what’s required, operating at the highest standard.
At Pacific Air Charters, safety is more than a marketing slogan. It is the foundation of every flight we operate. From our aircraft and maintenance program to our pilot qualifications and operational procedures, every decision is guided by one objective: delivering safe, reliable transportation throughout the Hawaiian Islands. Our commitment begins long before takeoff and continues until every passenger reaches their destination.
Every Pacific Air Charters flight is operated by highly qualified professional pilots who meet or exceed the rigorous standards required for FAA Part 135 commercial operations. We require Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certification for our captains, the highest level of pilot certification issued by the Federal Aviation Administration, reflecting extensive flight experience, advanced training, and demonstrated professional competency.
Professional pilots never stop training. PACI flight crews complete regular FAA-required recurrent training, proficiency evaluations, and flight checks to maintain the highest operational standards. These ongoing programs ensure every pilot remains current on aircraft systems, emergency procedures, regulations, and operational best practices throughout the year.
Pacific Air Charters operates the modern Tecnam P2012 Traveller, an aircraft specifically designed for regional commercial service. Its twin-engine design, advanced avionics, exceptional visibility, and modern systems provide a reliable platform for interisland transportation while delivering a comfortable passenger experience. Purpose-built for today’s commercial operator, the Traveller combines efficiency with proven safety-focused engineering.
Every aircraft in our fleet is maintained in accordance with FAA Part 135 regulations through comprehensive inspection programs, preventative maintenance schedules, and detailed documentation. Our maintenance professionals carefully inspect each aircraft to ensure it meets strict operational requirements before returning to service, helping provide dependable transportation for every flight.
Commercial air charter operations require far more than simply flying an aircraft. Every Pacific Air Charters Inc. flight is supported by operational planning, weather evaluation, dispatch coordination, aircraft performance analysis, and regulatory compliance. Before departure, our team evaluates conditions to ensure every flight can be conducted safely and professionally.
Safety is built through thousands of daily decisions, not a single procedure. It is reflected in our hiring standards, training requirements, maintenance philosophy, operational discipline, and the professionalism of every member of our team. For more than two decades, Pacific Air Charters has earned the trust of Hawaii residents, visitors, businesses, and tour operators by making safety the standard behind every flight.
