Circle of Safety - Information for Passengers

• Print

The Circle of Safety is a consumer education program that results from the continuing need to prevent and reduce accidents. The aviation consumer or passenger can increase the safety of a flight by:

• Choosing a provider of aviation services wisely
• Preparing well for each flight
• Paying attention during boarding and throughout the flight
• Taking appropriate action when required

The aviation passenger has rights and responsibilities with regard to safety as well. The FAA, air carriers, pilots, and passengers are all partners in the Circle of Safety in an effort to prevent accidents.
