Surf On Demand achieves ARGUS Certified Charter Broker accreditation and joins Air Charter Safety Foundation
March 19, 2026:Surf Air Mobility Inc., today announced that Surf On Demand, the company's on demand charter business, has achieved ARGUS Certified Charter Broker accreditation, a recognised industry standard for operational excellence and due diligence in private aviation brokerage. Surf On Demand has also joined the Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF), a nonprofit dedicated to advancing private and business aviation safety.
The ARGUS Certified Charter Broker accreditation is awarded following a comprehensive audit of a broker's operational practices, safety due diligence processes and organisational procedures. The certification confirms that Surf On Demand meets rigorous industry standards designed to promote transparency, operational integrity and enhanced safety oversight in private aviation brokerage. While there are over 400 ARGUS certified operators, Surf On Demand is now one of only 16 ARGUS certified brokerages globally.
Joshua Lowton, president of Surf On Demand, said: “Safety and trust are at the foundation of everything we do. Achieving ARGUS Certified Broker accreditation is an important validation of the software, processes and safety culture we've built over the past five years. As our business continues to grow, we will maintain the highest industry standards to deliver the level of service and reliability our clients expect.”
Patrick Chiles, ARGUS International vice president business aviation audit programmes, said: "ARGUS is happy to welcome Surf On Demand to our Certified Charter Broker programme. Its team demonstrated the commitment to safety, operational excellence and quality service that distinguishes ARGUS Certified Brokers.”
Since 2020, Surf On Demand has grown into a leader in private aviation, facilitating charter flights through a global network of vetted operators and aircraft.
As part of the company's broader safety initiative, Surf On Demand has also joined the Air Charter Safety Foundation, a non-profit organisation dedicated to advancing safety, professionalism and operational best practices throughout the charter aviation industry. Through ACSF membership, Surf On Demand will collaborate with operators, brokers and industry stakeholders to promote safety management systems, operational risk management and safety education initiatives for the private aviation sector.
The ARGUS certification and ACSF membership reflect Surf On Demand's ongoing commitment to strengthening safety oversight and accountability as demand for the company's On Demand charter services continues to grow.
Surf On Demand also continues to expand its technology-enabled brokerage through the “Powered by Surf On Demand” programme, which equips independent third-party charter brokers with the company's proprietary BrokerOS software, operator network and broader operational infrastructure. The technology streamlines quoting, sourcing, compliance checks and trip management while providing the third-party brokers with structured training and operational procedures designed to align with Surf On Demand's ARGUS certified due diligence and safety standards. By combining SurfOS technology with standardised operational practices, Surf On Demand enables brokers to scale their businesses while maintaining the transparency, safety oversight and service quality expected in the private aviation industry.
With the “Powered by Surf On Demand” programme generating profitable revenue, Surf Air Mobility anticipates Surf On Demand to be the largest contributor to the company's revenue growth in 2026.
