Do I need an agent or a trip support company to apply for my permits?

Whether you need an agent or a trip support company to obtain your landing and overflying permits depends on several factors, including the amount of notice you have, your previous communication experience with authorities, and the region of the world in which you’re operating.

In regions where communication is straightforward, such as most European countries, you might not need an agent. However, in areas where communication can be inconsistent or where the process is more complex, working with an agent can be highly beneficial. An agent can help navigate the bureaucracy, ensure timely submission of documentation, and avoid potential delays.

Using an experienced agent like American Flight Support (AFS) can be especially valuable in these situations. AFS is registered with multiple Civil Aviation Authorities (CAAs) worldwide, giving us the authority to act on your behalf to secure the necessary permits. Additionally, our team includes multilingual speakers who can bridge communication gaps, eliminate language barriers, and ensure that your requests are clearly understood and processed without delays.

But it’s not just about securing the permits—paying the associated permit fees and navigation charges can also be a complex task, especially if you’re not familiar with the local regulations and payment processes. American Flight Support can handle these payments on your behalf, ensuring that all fees are paid accurately and on time. This service is crucial in avoiding potential delays or penalties that can arise from miscommunication or missed payments.

We would love to hear from you and discuss your specific needs regarding permits and procedures. Our team is ready to provide the support you need to ensure your flight operations run smoothly and efficiently. Reach out to us, and let’s work together to make your journey as seamless as possible.
