We spend more on safety than many airlines.

Safety is an obsession at NetJets. From pilot qualifications and training to maintenance to operations, we never rest. And we refuse to compromise. No matter what it takes, your safety comes first.

• Every NetJets aircraft is equipped with state-of-the-art avionics, including a Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS II) and an Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS).
• The average NetJets pilot has flown one and a half million miles. Most of them are ex-military pilots or have flown big jets for major airlines. Our minimum standards for a pilot: 3,000 hours of experience--twice the minimum European requirement. Even with all this experience, we only allow our pilots to fly one aircraft type so that, in an emergency, their responses are intuitive and assured.
• Each one of our 900 pilots trains for over 60 hours a year, including 24 to 32 hours in flight simulators where a wide variety of extreme conditions are presented. Airline pilots normally spend 16 hours a year in the simulator.
• NetJets holds the IOSA (IATA Operational Safety Audit) certificate from the International Air Transport Association. It’s the highest safety accreditation in the world held by airlines like Lufthansa and SAS. We are the first and only operator of business jets to hold this certification.
