NAPLES, Fla. - May 18, 2026 - PRLog -- The Naples Airport Authority is commending 16 operators that rose to the top of its Fly Safe Fly Quiet Leaderboard during the first quarter of 2026.

Each quarter, Naples Airport reviews flight data to evaluate operators on a series of metrics, including compliance with voluntary curfew hours of 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. and adherence to the FAA-approved glide path and jet noise stage. The airport's Fly Safe Fly Quiet initiative is designed to promote safety while mitigating noise and improving the quality of life for those living and working near the airfield.

(1) Northern Jet Management

(2) NetJets Aviation

(3) Exclusive Jets

"This was the first time there have been three-way ties in two different categories, which indicates more operators are striving to be good neighbors by adhering to Fly Safe Fly Quiet guidelines," said Naples Airport Authority Executive Director Chris Rozansky. "Given that Q1 covered high season, the busiest time of the year for airports in Florida, being ranked on the leaderboard signifies that an operator is truly committed to this initiative."

During the first quarter, operators had a collective 98.4% compliance rate with Naples Airport's voluntary nighttime curfew.
