Apronjet becomes first charter broker in Turkey to earn ARGUS Registered Broker rating

ARGUS International is pleased to announce Apronjet as the first charter broker in Turkey to earn the ARGUS Registered Charter Broker rating. Apronjet is a nationwide leader and one of the main regional brokers in on-demand private jet charters.

As the most recognised and trusted source of information on the 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.

“This registration marks another important milestone in Apronjet's journey and is proof of our commitment, trustworthiness, professionalism and high standards, summarised as 'customer first, safety and ethics always',” said Zafer Yesilgul, founder and owner of Apronjet. “The Argus rating puts Apronjet in elite company. In the absence of a national and global certification associated with the registration or formal licensing of air charter brokers, we sincerely believe ARGUS' broker rating programme provides the best independent proof of compliance along with industry best practices and requirements.”

“We are pleased to announce Apron Aviation as our first Registered Charter Broker in Turkey,” said Joe Moeggenberg, president and CEO of ARGUS International, Inc. “With an ever-increasing number of brokers entering the industry it is critical to keep customer safety, finances and comfort at the forefront of business practices. We're proud to have Apronjet as a Registered Charter Broker.”

Consistent with the ARGUS Gold and Platinum rating programme for charter operators, the ARGUS Charter Broker programme is designed to provide end consumers and aircraft operators with unbiased, factual and relevant data necessary to make informed and confident decisions every time they participate in a charter flight facilitated through a charter broker. An ARGUS Registered Charter Broker must provide ARGUS with documented proof of specific requirements, and annually pledge its commitment to adhering to industry best practices and applicable regulations. A Certified Charter Broker will submit the same documentation and annual pledge and will undergo an on-site audit, once every two years, to prove its compliance with industry best practices and applicable regulations.
