Airside Liability Insurance
Airside liability insurance is often overlooked, but it is essential cover if you conduct business in airside locations. No matter how often your business conducts business in or near an airport, working airside entails dealing with specific hazards, that need to be insured against. Incidents resulting from these airside-specific hazards will not be covered by your standard public liability or motor policies – it is therefore imperative that you uncover and plug any gaps in your insurance cover.

Airside Liability Cover
Airports are busy, restricted environments with constantly changing movements of aircraft, pedestrians and service vehicles.
Businesses must also consider additional hazards, including fuel spills, adverse weather conditions and cargo handling.
It is important to insure against these risks and protect your business from potentially significant liabilities.
Every business performs different activities and requires insurance tailored to its specific operations.
Airside liability insurance is not a one-size-fits-all solution.
Conducting a thorough risk assessment and speaking with an experienced insurance broker can help establish the appropriate level of protection for your business.

Operating a Vehicle Airside
Aprons
Aprons are areas where aircraft are parked for loading, unloading, refuelling and servicing.
Drivers must remain aware of aircraft movements, engine blast, ground handling equipment and other vehicles.
Reversing and vehicle movements should follow the airport’s specific safety procedures and restrictions.
Businesses must also consider additional hazards, including fuel spills, adverse weather conditions and cargo handling.
Taxiway Crossing Routes
Taxiways are designated routes used by aircraft travelling between runways, aprons and other airport facilities.
Vehicles must only cross taxiways where authorised and must follow the relevant airport procedures and instructions.
Drivers should remain alert to aircraft movements and maintain safe distances at all times.
Manoeuvring Areas
Manoeuvring areas include runways and taxiways used for aircraft take-off, landing and ground movements.
Vehicle access is strictly controlled and generally requires appropriate training, authorisation and communication with air traffic control.
Only properly authorised personnel should enter these areas.
Airside Liability Insurance – Avoid Being Underinsured
Operating airside presents risks that may fall outside the scope of standard business insurance policies.
Without the correct cover, an incident involving aircraft, airport infrastructure, vehicles or third parties could result in significant financial consequences.
A thorough assessment of your activities, combined with suitable airside liability insurance, can help protect your business against these specialist exposures.
