The risks associated with illegal charters are significant, and the consequences are far-reaching and varied for all parties involved. Pilots risk losing their hard-earned licenses, aircraft owners may not receive payment from insurance companies, businesses may face prosecution and fines, and customers may not receive the services they paid for. The most severe consequence of an illegal charter is that someone may be injured or killed. Tragically, it is often clear that an illegal charter could have been avoided.

The purpose of this book is to address the industry's demand for increased awareness, education, and transparency. It will conduct a rigorous and comprehensive investigation into the application of law in the context of illegal charters. The book will engage in a comparative study across various jurisdictions, including the United States, Europe, Russia, Asia, and the Middle East. This text will explore whether the elements evidencing state practice in regulating illegal charters are specific to the region and legal system. It will examine strategies for preventing illegal charters and analyze the risks and consequences associated with them.

This book is of utmost importance and is likely to have a substantial impact on existing scholarship in international and national aviation law. It will be of interest to all parties involved in aviation, including industry professionals, legal practitioners, academics, policy-makers, and government officials.
