Stratos Jets has maintained its status as an ARGUS Certified Charter Broker for the 11th consecutive year, reinforcing its mission to raise standards of safety, transparency and service across the private aviation sector.
First certified in 2014, Stratos Jets continues to exceed ARGUS requirements through rigorous audits, continuous monitoring and transparent business practices, ensuring every franchise operates to the same trusted standards. Certification requires ongoing proof of ethical conduct, verified operator vetting and a clear dispute resolution framework.
Safety remains central to the company’s culture and its proprietary Stratos FMS platform, which embeds safety protocols and due diligence into every booking and operational step.
“Honesty and accountability are core values at Stratos Jets, and renewing our ARGUS Certified Charter Broker status is a distinction that separates us from other brokerages that lack the resources or commitment to take it further,” says Joel Thomas, CEO of Stratos Jets. “Any broker can claim to have a safety programme, but few can prove it. By opening our books to ARGUS, we've shown not only that we maintain an active safety programme, but that when safety and profits conflict, we choose safety for our clients beyond what is anticipated or expected.”
Since 2008, Stratos Jets has reinforced its standards through its approved vendor programme, which partners with carefully vetted air carriers. Each operator is assessed for compliance history, insurance, crew qualifications and safety record, exceeding ARGUS criteria.
ARGUS International’s Certified Charter Broker programme was created to bring oversight to a largely unregulated marketplace. Stratos Jets says its adherence to these principles ensures clients receive not only safe flights but transparent, professional service from experienced brokers.
