Aviation Safety Oversight

AVIATION SAFETY OVERSIGHT: As there is no direct service to the U.S. by Senegalese-registered carriers, or economic authority to operate such service between the U.S. and Senegal, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not assessed Senegal's Civil Aviation Authority for compliance with international aviation safety standards. Air carriers from countries meeting international safety standards are allowed, however, to conduct direct flights from Senegal to the U.S. As such, direct commercial air service to the U.S. provided by South African Airways began in Jan. 2003. (The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) of South Africa has been assessed by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration as Category 1 - in compliance with international safety standards.) For further information, travelers may contact the Department of Transportation within the U.S. at 1-800-322-7873, or visit the FAA’s Internet website at http://www.faa.gov/avr/iasa.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) separately assesses some foreign air carriers for suitability as official providers of air services. For information regarding the DOD policy on specific carriers, travelers may contact DOD at (618) 229-4801.
