Jet Access achieves IS-BAO Stage III
The hard work undertaken at Jet Access every day ensures that it not only meets, but exceeds, safety standards recognised by IS-BAO, and also by ARGUS, Wyvern and the FAA.
Jet Access, not only IS-BAO Stage III certified but ARGUS Platinum accredited for the twelfth year running.

Jet Access has successfully achieved International Standard - Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO) Stage III certification, which is the apex standard endorsed by the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC).

Additionally, it has secured the ARG/US Platinum accreditation for the twelfth consecutive year. The prestigious Platinum rating is the highest level of the ARG/US audit standard and is awarded only to those air charter operators that have demonstrated successful implementation of industry best safety practices relative to their safety management system, flight operations and maintenance operations.

“We are incredibly proud of our team’s unwavering commitment and dedication to safety. The hard work that is done every day ensures that we not only meet, but exceed, our safety standards, putting us among the nation’s leaders in business aviation safety and risk mitigation,” says CEO Quinn Ricker.

The IS-BAO Stage III certification is a significant accomplishment, representing the highest level of the IS-BAO framework, which is recognised globally as the benchmark for excellence in business aviation operations. The certification reflects a rigorous adherence to international safety standards, operational best practices and continuous improvement in safety management systems.

“Jet Access is proud to maintain a comprehensive and robust safety management system through the IS-BAO Stage III, ARG/US Platinum, WYVERN registry and FAA SMS Active Conformant certifications. These certifications are monumental achievements, only made possible by our dedicated team that provides the highest standards of safety, legality, and providing great customer service for every flight,” adds Maria Kelly, vice president of safety.

The IS-BAO Stage III certification process involves thorough evaluation of an organisation's safety management system, operational procedures and compliance with global safety standards. The certification affirms that Jet Access has implemented a robust safety management system that meets the highest standards.
