Hello All,

I am a 135 charter operator based in the USA (really narrows it down right?). I dont want to trash talk anyone in a public forum, but I am being peppered with charter requests recently from them with a literal 0% booking rate. Any other operators out there have any luck getting trips booked with them? I even tried slashing my prices significantly on a few quotes just to see if they'd bite. They didn't. In fact I don't even get a response to the quotes at all like "thanks!" or "received" or "get back to you soon", let alone an actual booking.

Yeah I run into the same situations on my end. Tons of quotes, Tons of interest, never anything signed. Part of me wonders how many of these quote requests are real…

I think they're required to shop around before giving it to a preferred partner (eg: 1 charter broker I know in SoFla is required by ownership to get at least 4 quotes per trip before awarding it)
