Western Sahara Overflight Permit Regulation and Procedures

If you're an operator of a business jet or a commercial airline with plans to flyover Western Sahara airspace, obtaining a Western Sahara Overflight Permit from the Western Sahara Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is mandatory. As a flight dispatcher, it's important to have a good understanding of the requirements for obtaining this permit, including the fact that the issuing of an overflight permit confirms that there is no political or security objection to your airline, aircraft, or country of origin/destination and that there are no outstanding navigation fees due to the ATC authority.
