TWC Charter Airlines

TWC Aviation is based in California with operations in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York.  At these offices, TWC manages, sells, acquisitions, and charters planes; they also hold a 145 certificate.  They have dozens of aircraft ranging from light jets to super midsized jets to large jets including Bombardiers, Dassaults, Cessnas, Embraers, Gulfstreams, Boeing, and Hawker Beechcraft.  With over 250 employees, including flight, management, executives, dispatchers, and flight attendants, TWC says that they all work toward the highest amount of safety at the same time treating their customers as they would want to be treated.  The clients that TWC targets are rich.  I was curious to know how much a flight may cost.  A flight from Los Angeles to Detroit, one way, in a Hawker - $28,500!  If you want to upgrade to a gulfstream - $61,722!  You better hope that their staff is highly qualified and is giving the best customer service you have ever seen.  Like if there is a puddle, that captain better put down his/her captain jacket for you for the price of their flights.   TWC only hires people who are highly talented and motivated who have a passion for customer service. 

They are hiring such a person for a captain for a Challenger 300 based in San Jose, CA.

From the look of TWC Aviation, they take care of there customers as well as their employees.  They charge a lot for flights, so hopefully it goes to employees’ paychecks.  You need a lot of experience before you can get into charter aviation, but if you can get there, you’d be set.
