EASA and EUROCONTROL publish joint Action Plan to counter rising GNSS interference across Europe

EASA and EUROCONTROL have issued a joint Action Plan to bolster aviation safety and operational resilience amid a growing number of GNSS (GPS) interference events. The plan delivers consistent guidance for regulators, air navigation service providers and operators to detect, mitigate and manage GNSS disruptions.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

A growing number of GNSS interference events across Europe prompted a joint Action Plan that standardises detection, mitigation and contingency procedures for regulators, ANSPs and operators, shaping how GNSS outages will be managed operationally.
The Action Plan complements broader EU steps to strengthen navigation resilience, including imminent Galileo PRS accreditation and development of a Galileo–GPS interference monitoring service, and follows EASA's use of operational bulletins as formal safety guidance (see recent conflict-zone bulletin updates).
