Stratos leverages one of the deepest and longest-standing operator networks in private aviation. These relationships are built on accountability, performance history, and trust.
Planning ahead expands aircraft availability and enables deeper due diligence. Organizations that integrate supplemental lift into their annual travel strategy benefit from reduced execution risk and greater cost control.
Supplemental lift is the use of a non-owned aircraft to support your travel needs when your primary aircraft is unavailable—or not the optimal tool for a specific mission. Under Stratos’ Risk-Managed Private Aviation™ framework, supplemental lift is governed by policy, documented due diligence, and institutional oversight—not convenience alone.
No. In mature flight departments, supplemental lift is a planned component of the travel strategy, not just a reaction to disruptions. It is commonly used to support overlapping missions, peak travel periods, international operations, or trips that exceed the performance profile of the primary aircraft—while maintaining consistent risk controls.
Every supplemental flight is sourced through a structured due-diligence process. As an ARGUS Certified Charter Broker, Stratos evaluates operator certification, safety history, crew qualifications, insurance coverage, and operational reliability before a flight is presented.
Traditional charter focuses primarily on availability. Supplemental lift under Stratos’ Risk-Managed Private Aviation™ framework focuses on governance —ensuring non-owned aircraft meet professional flight-department standards.
Stratos remains actively involved throughout the mission. If a disruption occurs, we manage recovery options, alternate lift, and coordination to protect schedules and minimize operational impact—consistent with Risk-Managed Private Aviation™ principles.
