Private jet company Jet Linx grounded its fleet yesterday to allow its more than 550 team members to attend the company’s seventh-annual safety summit. The assembly of its team members addressed stress management and cybersecurity and included a yearly safety performance review.&nbsp;
According to Jet Linx, it is the only U.S. air carrier to have halted flying its entire fleet of more than 100 aircraft in pursuit of safety. The company's focus on promoting safety allowed it to be the first to earn Argus's highest safety rating, Platinum Elite, when it was introduced in 2021.
The safety summit included presentations by Mach2 founder and CEO Anthony Bourke, a pilot with 2,700 flight hours from tactical missions, and In-Scope Solutions president Susan Sawatzky, a specialist in psychological health. Sawatzky said that “Jet Linx is ahead of many in the industry in terms of addressing safety concerns and looking at risks not often addressed, such as mental health and wellness,” while Bourke called Jet Linx “true professionals.”&nbsp;
Omaha, Nebraska-headquartered Jet Linx has bases across the U.S.
