Air traffic management
Safe and efficient air travel.
Safe and efficient air travel.
As Aotearoa New Zealand’s air navigation service provider, we are responsible for delivering air traffic control and infrastructure to ensure all aircraft and passengers in our airspace arrive at their destination, safely and efficiently.
From departure to arrival, our air traffic controllers are responsible for ensuring safe separation of aircraft through our airspace and the safe and efficient operation of aircraft in and around airports. They also provide support and information to aircraft travelling in uncontrolled airspace.
Airways controls all domestic and international air traffic travelling within New Zealand’s Flight Information Region (FIR), which covers 30 million square kilometres – one of the largest areas of airspace in the world.
The systems developed by Airways and our partners maximise the efficient use of airspace and help to reduce delays.
We invest in new technology that enhances safety, saves millions of dollars for our customers, and delivers real economic and environmental benefits for our customers and the travelling public.
