New Flight Charters awarded rating as ARGUS Registered Broker

New Flight Charters, a nationwide leader in on-demand private jet charters, has announced that it has earned the ARGUS Registered Charter Broker rating.

The rating puts New Flight Charters in elite company; of the estimated 380 charter broker companies in the U.S., just 22 carry an ARGUS rating.

In the absence of FAA certification, DOT registration or formal licensing of air charter brokers, the ARGUS broker ratings provide an independent proof of compliance with industry best practices and requirements.

The ARGUS Charter Broker programme confirms that a charter broker is a legitimate business entity, understands and adheres to industry best practices and is committed to the utmost in safety and service-oriented charter operations. This all translates into the confidence that charter customers and charter operators are looking for in an air charter broker.

As the most recognised source of information on air charter business around the world, the ARGUS Charter Broker programme raises the bar to meet the high expectations and due diligence requirements of charter consumers and commercial aircraft operators. Although there are many charter brokers in the industry, only the finest can qualify as an ARGUS rated charter broker.

The Air Charter Safety Foundation, in Washington D.C., has announced support for the ARGUS Charter Broker programme; "For many years, those of us familiar with the air charter industry have recognised that there is a significant variance in the overall quality, qualifications, business integrity and financial resources of air charter brokers," said Dave Hewitt, chairman for ACSF. "ACSF believes that brokers can serve an important role in the air charter industry on behalf of both clients and operators. We fully support programmes such as those created by ARGUS and other reputable organisations that set and validate standards to help separate quality brokers from others."

New Flight Charters has been a member of the Air Charter Safety Foundation since 2009.

The ARGUS Charter Broker programme is the only charter broker ratings programme endorsed by BACA The Air Charter Association Ltd. New Flight Charters is an approved BACA member.
