GM2 SERA.14100 Notification of suspected communicable diseases or other public health risk on board an aircraft

ED Decision 2024/007/R

ACTIONS OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH AUTHORITY

The public health authority (PHA) may contact the representative or operating agency of the aircraft operator as well as the aerodrome operator, if applicable, for subsequent coordination with the aircraft concerning clinical details and aerodrome preparation. Depending on the communication facilities available to the aircraft operator or its designated representative, it may not be possible to communicate with the aircraft until it is closer to its destination. Apart from the initial notification to the air traffic services unit while en route, ATC communication channels should be avoided.
