QuikCharter Air Taxi

QuikCharter, also styled as San Francisco Bay Area Air Taxi, is an on-demand air charter company with its office in San Jose, California. Trade press and operator databases describe it as an FAA Part 135 charter operator based in San Jose.

Its small fleet spans three classes of aircraft: an Embraer Phenom 100 light jet for up to five passengers, a Piper Meridian (PA-46) turboprop for three to four passengers, and a Cirrus SR22 piston aircraft for two to three passengers. The Phenom 100, registered N465W, joined in November 2024 as the company's first jet; before that the certificated fleet was propeller-only.

Typical trips start in the Bay Area and San Jose and go to destinations such as Lake Tahoe, Napa Valley, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Las Vegas and Jackson Hole. The company also offers urgent cargo flights and posts empty-leg flights.

The mix of piston, turboprop and light jet aircraft lets flyers match the aircraft to the trip, from short regional hops to longer flights across the West.
