Joining CANSO: Air Navigation Service Providers Full Membership
Joining CANSO - Full Membership Why Join CANSO? The air traffic management (ATM) industry is changing. As a result, air navigation service providers (ANSP) are taking on a range of new tasks and responsibilities. They are preparing for a new generation of ATM technologies and major changes to the numbers and types of aircraft operations they support. Meanwhile, international aviation regulatory bodies are preparing important new rules and procedures that will directly impact their operations. It is vitally important that the ATM industry influences its own future through proactive advocacy by CANSO - the global voice of air traffic management.
CANSO membership provides opportunities to:
—— Access industry knowledge, information, guidance materials, data, expertise and best practice —— Benefit from representation at major international organisations – including ICAO where CANSO holds official observer status —— Provide input to, and share experiences with major nextgeneration ATM modernisation programmes such as NextGen, SESAR and CARATS (Japan) —— Work with other aviation stakeholders to address common challenges, such as the growing presence of remotely piloted aircraft systems in civil airspace —— Shape the future of air traffic management as part of CANSO’s Standing Committees, workgroups and Regions —— Have your views heard as part of the only global voice of ATM —— Enhance the performance and effectiveness of CANSO as your association
CANSO was founded in 1996 to represent the interests of the global air traffic management community. Today CANSO unites more than 160 air navigation service providers (ANSP) and industry suppliers. Together, these organisations work to transform global ATM performance. canso.org

GLOBAL MEMBERSHIP FEES AND REGIONAL CONTRIBUTION The membership fee for an individual air navigation service provider comprises a global membership fee and, if applicable, a regional contribution. The global CANSO membership fee is calculated on the basis of ATM related turnover of the applicant air navigation service provider. Annual ATM turnover refers only to the annual revenue collected from air navigation charges (en-route, approach and/or aerodrome). This excludes non-ANS airport charges such as parking and passenger charges. A regional contribution represents a Member’s share of a region’s annual budget and will be explained by the relevant Region Director during the membership application process. Contact information for the Region Directors can be found below.
