Purpose

The International Flight Information Manual (IFIM) is an on-line pre-flight and planning guide for use by U.S. non-scheduled operators and business and private aviators flying outside of the United States. Planning guidance also is provided for international flights entering, exiting, and operating in the U.S. airspace. The accuracy and currency of information for some of the countries contained in this guide is uncertain due to the difficulty in obtaining the information and the rapidly changing world environment.

Because the Federal Aviation Administration has not been able to verify the information provided by sources in other countries, aviators should always check with a country's aviation authority or a local aviation handler when planning a trip outside of the United States.
