Hop-A-Jet Worldwide Jet Charter holds the coveted ARG/US Platinum rating—the highest safety ranking attainable by a Part 135 Charter Operator. This certifies we have an excellent safety history, well qualified pilots and equipment and sound operational and maintenance practices.

According to industry statistics compiled by ARG/US, there are approximately 1,000 companies that operate jet and/or turboprop aircraft for passenger charter in the United States. Only 52, or about 5%, have achieved the Platinum rating.

The ARG/US Standard is a set of safety measurements for evaluating charter operators' safety systems, including such critical areas as pilot-training programs, the quality of maintenance-related record keeping, aircraft insurance, etc. ARG/US developed the standard in cooperation with its Customer Advisory Board, a panel consisting of management representatives from flight departments at Fortune 100 companies and other large corporations.

Wyvern Wingman Alliance

Hop-A-Jet Worldwide Jet Charter is currently one of 29 private jet charter operators in the United States who have been accepted into the Wyvern Wingman Alliance—a prestigious group of elite jet charter companies.

As a partner in the Wyvern Wingman Alliance, you are assured Hop-A-Jet has met Wyvern’s enhanced air charter safety standards, which are significantly more stringent than the FAA requires. For example, aircrews must have nearly 4 times the experience mandated by the FAA—and all flight crews must undergo rigorous annual simulator training that’s not even required by the FAA.

Double-checked™ aircraft, too, live up to higher standards. While the FAA requires no formal manufacturer’s training for maintenance technicians, Wyvern does. What’s more, they require every maintenance department or service provider to institute a formalized safety program—complete with a safety committee—all of which is audited on an annual basis. Today, you’ll find less than 700 aircraft globally that meet the enhanced Wyvern standards.

Wyvern has maintained an annual check on Hop-A-Jet Worldwide Jet Charter and continues to endorse us as a safe choice for private jet travel.

Wyvern Consulting Limited is considered by many to be the industry leader in independent private jet safety audits. Wyvern was founded in 1991 to help corporate jet flight departments ensure the air charter operators they were using to supplement their corporate jet travel meet the same high standards as their own flight departments.
