Northwest Airlines Charter Department offers aircraft for a wide range of customers including the U.S. government, sports teams, corporations and individuals. All charters operate under Part 121, which are the strictest guidelines of safety set forth by the Federal Aviation Administration. If you want the highest level of reliability and safety for your next charter flight, consider a Northwest Charter.
