The Singapore National Aviation Safety Plan 2025–2027 outlines a comprehensive, collaborative strategy to enhance aviation safety amid growing global air traffic. It focuses on proactive risk management, regulatory development, manpower, technology adoption, and regional cooperation to maintain Singapore’s exemplary safety standards and support sustainable aviation growth.<!-- notionvc: 92508f46-b33e-48a5-9bd9-db05059490b8 -->

The Singapore National Aviation Safety Plan (NASP) 2025–2027 presents a triannual, integrated roadmap that unites government agencies, aviation companies, and personnel to strengthen Singapore’s aviation safety framework. Developed under the leadership of the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS), in partnership with the Transport Safety Investigation Bureau and industry stakeholders, this initiative is aligned with international standards, including ICAO’s Global Aviation Safety Plan (GASP) and the Asia-Pacific Regional Aviation Safety Plan.

Recognizing the rapid growth in global and regional air traffic, the document identifies critical operational safety risks, including runway incursions, mid-air collisions, loss of control, system component failures, turbulence, and emerging challenges such as Global Navigation Satellite System Radio Frequency Interference (GNSS RFI).

It highlights evolving risks from manpower constraints, fatigue, automated systems, new technologies such as AI, unmanned aircraft, and infrastructure expansion—emphasizing the need for adaptation through risk-based safety oversight, proactive hazard identification, and enhanced data sharing.

The plan’s four strategic priorities focus on enhancing operational safety, developing human capital, reviewing policies and regulations, and fostering a strong safety culture through effective management systems. Action items encompass aerodrome safety enhancements, foreign operator oversight, fatigue risk management, strengthening safety culture, competency-based training, integrating emerging technologies, and regional cooperation through ASEAN initiatives. The NASP advocates for a tripartite approach that engages regulators, industry, and unions to cultivate leadership, safety awareness, and resilience.

Overall, the NASP 2025–2027 commits Singapore to maintaining zero fatal accidents, continually improving safety oversight aligned with ICAO standards, and proactively mitigating risks in a rapidly transforming aviation environment, while supporting sustainable sector growth.
