The Gulf Flight Safety Association is a not-for-profit body that brings together airlines, airports, regulators, and ground services across the GCC. Our work advances aviation safety in the region — through twice-yearly conferences, working-level knowledge-sharing among members, and active engagement with international safety bodies.
GFSA is funded by member contributions and reviewed sponsorship. We answer to no single operator, authority, or commercial interest.
