Aviation
CoU
An airport Conditions of Use document is common for major airports and details the commercial terms and conditions which any aviation operator must comply and agrees with when using the airport’s facilities. It aims to ensure that in the absence of any other commercial airport agreement, all airport users are formally bound by the terms under which they may use the airport’s facilities. For the purpose of this agreement airport users include regular passenger transport (RPT) airline operators, general aviation operators, air charter operators, and air freight aircraft. The Conditions of Use document complements existing plans and procedures such as the Transport Security Program and the Aerodrome Manual.
