  • The Ascend team always takes great care of us! Zayta Thundercloud
  •   WOW! A huge round of applause to all the up front girls Sarah, Leslie and Sheri! You girls crush it every year for all of my fishing groups to and from the Bahamas. We all cant thank you enough! I am sure there are others involved in making all the magic happen as well, like all the maintenance crew and pilots! Thanks to them as well! I look forward to our 6 other charter flights we have booked for 2023. Thanks again! Bruce Chard
  • Great experience with Ascend! They were flexible on our flight times and had a nice, newly renovated reception area where we were offered drinks and snacks (as well as coloring books for our children) by their very nice staff members. We had two very capable pilots and a nice plane that felt safe and more up to date than other private charters we've flown. Would definitely recommend them! Leah W

  • We greatly appreciated their attentiveness in handling every part of the process, from booking to flying and arriving safely at our destination with 2 small doggies. We were grateful for their patience with our many questions. Attention to all of our needs were met and we enjoyed our flight. We will be flying with them again. They were accommodating and helpful in every respect.

  • I have been using Ascend Via Makers Air for all my charter flight needs for the past 15 years and I can say without a doubt that their service is second to none. I have tried other charter services in the past, but none of them compare to the level of service that Ascend Via Makers Air provides. Whether I need a freight flight or a special event charter, they always go above and beyond to meet my needs. I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a charter flight.
