VistaJet has renewed its designation as a Wyvern Wingman Certified Operator, reflecting its sustained commitment to the highest standards of operational safety and discipline. The certification is maintained through ongoing participation in the Wyvern Flight Leader Program, including structured quarterly coaching that supports continuous improvement and reinforces best practices across flight operations.
With its fleet of more than 200 aircraft, VistaJet has flown corporations, governments and private clients to over 200 countries and territories, covering 96 per cent of the world. Founded 20 years ago, the company pioneered an innovative business model where customers are granted access to an entire fleet while paying only for the hours they fly, free of the responsibilities and asset risks linked to aircraft ownership and fractional ownership. VistaJet's signature Program membership offers customers a bespoke subscription of flight hours on its fleet of mid and long-range jets, allowing them to fly anytime, anywhere, with as little as 24 hours' notice.
VistaJet Limited is a European air carrier that operates 9H-registered aircraft under its Maltese Air Operator Certificate No. MT-17.
“We are proud to be recognised among the industry's elite operators, consistently exceeding the highest international standards across every aspect of our operations,” says Nick van der Meer, chief operating officer. “This reflects the dedication of our teams who consistently deliver confidence and peace of mind to our members and partners to provide the safest and most reliable global aviation experience possible.”
Wingman Operators are evaluated by the Wingman standard criteria. The scope of the evaluation includes an assessment of operational activities, a review of the company's operational history and safety records, a SMS, an internal evaluation programme, administrative compositions, technical documentation, pilot and aircraft records, training requirements and maintenance operations, including technician training and experience.
“VistaJet continues to demonstrate exceptional leadership in business aviation through its commitment to safety, professionalism and operational excellence,” adds Andrew Day, Wyvern COO. “Its continued Wyvern Wingman certification reflects a culture where safety remains a foundational value.”
