charter service
Private travel arrangement
A charter service provides transportation—typically by aircraft, bus, or boat—that operates on demand for a specific customer rather than on fixed public schedules.
Unlike commercial airlines or public transit, charter services are hired for private use: The team traveled by charter service.
The term also applies to companies offering such arrangements: We booked through a yacht charter service.
