Here's the definition from 125 applicability paragraph.

this part prescribes rules governing the operations of U.S.-registered civil airplanes which have a seating configuration of 20 or more passengers or a maximum payload capacity of 6,000 pounds or more when common carriage is not involved.

Here's the definition from part 110. Common carriage means holding out to the public, basically offering transportation service to the public, not schedules. You may be thinking of "on-demand" vs. "scheduled".

Noncommon carriage means an aircraft operation for compensation or hire that does not involve a holding out to others.
Common Carriage: A carrier becomes a common carrier when it "holds itself out" to the public, or to a segment of the public. Holding Out: A carrier is holding out when they represent themselves as willing to furnish transportation within the limits of its facilities to any person who wants it.
Scheduled operation means any common carriage passenger-carrying operation for compensation or hire conducted by an air carrier or commercial operator for which the certificate holder or its representative offers in advance the departure location, departure time, and arrival location. It does not include any passenger-carrying operation that is conducted as a public charter operation under part 380 of this chapter.
Since common carriage is not involved, they don't fall under this definition. They can still have scheduled flights, but the FAA doesn't see it as scheduled common carriage operation.

I can find nothing about scheduled vs. on-demand for Part 125. I would assume that is because they are not holding themselves out to the public, so it really doesn't matter if they are or not.
