EASA Safety Charter

Safety principles at European level

Aviatefinder has signed the EASA Safety Charter and is listed by EASA as a participating flight-sharing platform.

Signatory to the EASA Safety Charter

By signing, Aviatefinder commits to the Charter’s safety principles for non-commercial cost-sharing flights in light aircraft. The official EASA listing makes this commitment publicly traceable.

Background

What is the EASA Safety Charter?

The Charter sets out safety principles and commitments for platforms that facilitate private cost-sharing flights. Its focus includes transparency, responsible flight decisions and clear information for pilots and travellers.

Principles

Core safety principles

  • The pilot decides

    The decision whether to conduct a flight rests solely with the pilot. Passenger expectations must never create pressure to fly.

  • Transparent pilot information

    Travellers should receive meaningful information about the aircraft and the pilot’s current experience and qualifications.

  • Safety before completion

    A flight may be postponed or cancelled for safety or operational reasons, including short-notice weather changes.

  • Clear cost-sharing rules

    Direct flight costs are shared by the people on board, including the pilot, with no profit for the pilot and no more than six people sharing costs.

Private flights are not airline flights

Cost-sharing flights are part of non-commercial general aviation. They are subject to different safety and oversight requirements from commercial airline or charter services.

Safety begins with good decisions
