ARGUS International Honors Jet Access Aviation as a Platinum Elite Operator

Bloomfield, NJ (March 25, 2026) – ARGUS International, a member of the SGS group, honors Jet Access as a Platinum Elite operator. The Platinum Elite rating requires operators to meet the ARGUS Platinum standards set forth for an operator to become Platinum rated. Once Platinum rated, an operator can request to go beyond the Platinum rating and become Platinum Elite rated. At this level, operators simultaneously meet the ARGUS Platinum Standards, which is the highest standard globally, and agree to be continuously monitored by the ARGUS team. Platinum Elite is an industry-changing program available to select ARGUS Platinum rated operators. The program features real-time operational safety performance monitoring and timely visibility to significant operator changes. While traditional audit programs require audits every two years, Platinum Elite offers continual evaluation.

"Jet Access has repeatedly demonstrated their commitment to industry best practices through their history of successful ARGUS Platinum audits. We are delighted to welcome them into the Platinum Elite program and look forward to their continuing contributions toward raising the bar for aviation safety and operational quality." said by Patrick Chiles, ARGUS International Vice President Business Aviation.

"Jet Access doesn’t just follow safety standards, we set them. Less than 1% of all U.S. charter operators hold both ARGUS Platinum Elite and IS-BAO Progressive Stage 3 certifications, we operate at a level that few in the industry can claim. Add our FAA-recognized Safety Management System (SMS) Active Conformant status, already placing us in the top 2.5% of U.S. charter operators, and it’s clear, Jet Access defines what it means to fly safely, efficiently, and with uncompromising excellence. For us, safety isn’t a benchmark, it’s the standard that others strive to meet." said Quinn Ricker, CEO Jet Access.

Maria Kelly, Jet Access Vice President of Safety, continues to state “ARGUS Platinum Elite recognition emphasizes the strength of our safety management systems and the daily diligence of our team. Every team member plays a critical role within our safety management system, to continuously evaluate, refine, and elevate our standards to ensure we are not only meeting, but exceeding, industry best practices.”
