VistaJet has integrated data-led risk assessment technology Osprey Flight Solutions into its operations.

By adopting Osprey’s safety system, the company will risk assess every single flight directly through Osprey's proprietary operations software and support operational decision making. The platform is designed to deliver immediate intelligence on the aviation environment, collecting data from 200,000 sources in 60 languages. A team of analysts combines the data with machine learning algorithms, painting a real-time view of global safety.

Data is applied to a 10km by 10km grid covering the full globe and provides a detailed altitude overview. With granular and real time access to data, the VistaJet team will be able to measure possible delays and calibrate each flight to the most secure conditions along the safest routes, even when the aircraft is airborne.

“We look at the most efficient way to fly, with safety being the core driver,” says COO Nick van der Meer. “By providing even more meaningful data to our inhouse experts, they are able to create a smoother flight experience for our customers. Safety is and must always be a common goal for all aviation companies, and we are proud to lead the way by adopting the most advanced innovation technologies available on the market ahead of anyone else in business aviation."

Operating from its headquarters in Malta, VistaJet was the first operator to be given the EBAA Diamond Safety of Flight Award in 2016, an honour which it took again in 2018. The company is also ARGUS International Platinum and Wyvern Wingman certified. Since launching in 2004, VistaJet has completed 146,000 flights globally, having safely flown over 367,000 passengers to more than 1,900 airports worldwide.
