The National Air Transportation Association has formed a new committee that will focus on establishing best practices and standards for air charter brokers. “NATA’s Air Charter Broker Committee is comprised of a group of charter brokers who are interested in advancing the industry and association’s goal of elevating the industry through transparency, ethical standards, safety, and continuous improvement,” said NATA v-p Ryan Waguespack.

The new committee comes as the association continues to focus on combating illegal charter, in part through the education of consumers, operators, and brokers. “The association, through its Illegal Charter Task Force, is actively providing resources to charter brokers and other members of the air charter community to assist them in avoiding illegal charter,” Waguespack said. “We are looking forward to working with these dedicated individuals to enhance and expand the resources available to brokers and their clients.”

In addition to serving as a platform for those education efforts, the committee will address other issues affecting the broker community, the association said.
