The government is "fully committed" to giving the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) civil sanction powers to enforce the new-look Atol scheme once plans to reform the system are complete.
The government is currently working on reforms to the Atol scheme
Ministers have so far reached out to the industry twice on suggestions for, or views on, proposed changes to the Atol scheme, which could include the introduction of a variable Atol Protection Contribution, currently fixed at £2.50 per passenger.
A further consultation is expected in the autumn, with the CAA’s head of Atol Michael Budge previously having signalled the changes would be introduced in time for the spring 2024 Atol renewal window.
