Note - On 6 April 2026, new provisions in the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 (DMCCA) on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) came into effect and replaced the ADR Regulations 2015. The CAA is now reviewing its ADR policy documents in light of the DMCCA and will consider what, if any, changes will need to be made to this page as part of its review. Aviation consumers can continue to take their unresolved complaints to the two ADR schemes – AviationADR and CEDR.
This document provides guidance for applicants wishing to be approved by the Civil Aviation Authority as alternative dispute resolution (ADR) entities for aviation under The Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes (Competent Authorities and Information) Regulations 2015 (the Regulations). It is also guidance on CAA policy for ADR entities which have been approved by the CAA under aforementioned Regulations.
