Overflight/Landing Permits
Overflight Permits
• An overflight permit is an official authorization issued by a country’s civil aviation authority (CAA) that allows an aircraft to legally fly over the country’s airspace without landing.
• Some countries may impose restrictions on military or state aircraft, or during specific political events, requiring additional coordination for overflights.
Landing Permits
• A landing permit is authorization granted by a country’s CAA or airport authority, allowing an aircraft to land at a specific airport within that country.
Types of Flights Requiring Permits
• Scheduled Commercial Flights
• Non-Scheduled/Charter Flights
• Private and Corporate Jets
• Cargo Flights
• Military and Government Flights. State and military flights require specialised permits, often subject to more stringent security and diplomatic considerations.
