Organisation Overview

Polish Air Navigation Services Agency (PANSA) ensures safe, efficient, and sustainable air navigation across more than 334,000 sq. km of Polish airspace — one of the largest in Europe.

Each day, over 2,500 flights and nearly half a million passengers transit Polish skies. This results in more than 758 000 IFR movements, expertly managed by more than 600 air traffic controllers. Moreover, PANSA’s Flight Information Service handled almost 300 000 operations in 2024.

Both ATC and FIS operate in an extremely complex Polish airspace, characterized by advanced  civil-military cooperation mechanisms enabled by in-house developed software solutions that ensure the highest quality of service.

Our air traffic controllers are supported by advanced technology. A vast network of systems across Poland – radars, air-ground communication devices, RNAV systems, ILS/DME devices – ensures safety and precision of operations, even under low visibility conditions. All these assets and services are underpinned by a robust cybersecurity framework.

Our priorities include system resilience, integration of manned and unmanned aviation, and close cooperation with institutional partners across the EU and beyond. PANSA continues to invest in innovation and talent, which is reflected by our lead in civil air traffic controller training – almost 200 future ATCOs were in various stages of training at PANSA in 2024 and 2025. We remain committed to actively shaping the future of European airspace.
