Monarch Air Group

Monarch Air Group LLC is an air charter company with offices at 610 SW 34th Street in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Its NBAA directory entry places the office at Fort Lauderdale International Airport. The company says it has been arranging charter flights since 2006.

Monarch Air Group states plainly that it is not an aircraft operator. It arranges flights with third-party operators, which its website says fly under FAA Part 135 or Part 121 certificates or a foreign equivalent. Its NBAA directory profile lists air charter, passenger charter and air cargo and freight.

Its website covers on-demand private jet charter in aircraft from turboprops up to airliners, which also suits group travel, as well as helicopter charter and cargo flights. It also describes long-term and ACMI aircraft leasing, and work placing aircraft owners with Part 135 operators for management. A separate government services line covers logistics and supply flights for government agencies and NGOs, including in austere environments.

Monarch Air Group says it is an ARGUS-certified broker and an Air Charter Association member, and that it is accredited by the BBB. Bookings are handled 24/7, in English and Spanish.

Flyers comparing options should keep in mind that safety standards depend on the operator chosen for each trip. It is worth asking Monarch which operator and aircraft will fly a given quote.
