Surf Air Mobility Inc. has successfully completed the implementation of its Safety Management System (SMS) for airline operations, specifically through its Southern Airways Express operating certificate. This achievement comes a year ahead of the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) May 2027 mandate, placing Southern Airways Express among just nine Part 135 commuter operators with an operational SMS. The SMS represents a comprehensive approach to managing safety and risk, reflecting years of investment in safety culture and operational discipline. Surf Air Mobility connects communities across the U.S. with a robust regional aviation network, carrying around 300,000 passengers annually on over 60,000 scheduled departures. The SMS not only enhances safety for passengers but also supports the company's charter business by ensuring all third-party operators are thoroughly vetted for compliance. Louis Saint-Cyr, President of Airlines at Surf Air Mobility, emphasized that safety is the core of their operations, which is critical as they prepare to integrate electric aircraft into their fleet. The SMS will facilitate proactive risk management, promote a positive safety culture, and enhance operational reliability as the company expands its services.
