Regulated supplier of in-flight supplies means a supplier whose procedures meet common security rules and standards sufficient to allow delivery of in-flight supplies directly to aircraft.

What does the approval process for a regulated supplier of in-flight supplies look like

To obtain regulated supplier of in-flight supplies status, an entity submits the following to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA, in polish ULC):

  • an application for approval,
  • a security programme,
  • a Declaration of Commitments – Regulated Supplier of In-flight Supplies.

The final stage involves an on-site verification by CAA inspectors to assess compliance with EU regulations and the procedures outlined in the security programme.

Why is it worth it?

Achieving regulated supplier of in-flight supplies status brings tangible business benefits:

  • possibility of exemption from additional security screening of inflight supplies before being taken into a security restricted area, when cooperating with entities applying security measures (known supplier – regulated supplier),
  • reduced operational costs through simplified procedures,
  • faster supplies handling and shorter delivery times,
  • strengthening credibility and competitiveness in the inflight supplies market.
