Our role in society

The airspace above us provides critical infrastructure for the safe delivery of essential medical supplies, cargo, passengers and emergency missions. It is available around the clock regardless of geopolitical upheaval, pandemics, conflict or unpredictable events. To deliver this invisible capability, air navigation service providers provide the resources, the staff and the expertise to guarantee safe air transport day-in, day-out, every day of the year. 

The airspace plays a vital role for prosperity and economic growth – locally, nationally and globally – while the military component helps to ensure safety and security, and protects our European democratic values.
