The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is the UK's specialist aviation regulator. We ensure the aviation industry meets the highest safety standards; protect consumers by making sure they have choice and value and are treated fairly; drive improvements in airlines and airports’ environmental performance; and ensure that the industry manages security risks effectively.
We have around 1,000 employees following a wide variety of different career paths. Most are based in our two main offices, in London near Holborn and close to Gatwick Airport in Sussex. We have smaller regional offices at Stirling, Manchester and Luton.
As the UK's specialist aviation regulator we work so that:
We are a public corporation, established by Parliament in 1972 as an independent specialist aviation regulator. The UK Government requires that our costs are met entirely from charges to those we provide a service to or regulate.
Most aviation regulation and policy is harmonised across the world to ensure consistent levels of safety and consumer protection. Worldwide safety regulations are set by the International Civil Aviation Organisation and within Europe by the European Aviation Safety Agency.
We run the ATOL holiday financial protection scheme.
We also economically regulate some airports and certain aspects of air traffic control.
Our consumer panel acts as a ‘critical friend’ providing a consumer perspective on all aspects of our work.
