FLY2SKY holds an approval for Dangerous Goods Transportation by air (except Class 7 Radioactive Materials) granted by Directorate General Civil Aviation Administration.
Fly2Sky takes all reasonable measures to prevent transportation of dangerous goods on board inadvertently.
The complete handling of Dangerous Goods on board of FLY2SKY aircrafts, irrespective of whether the flight is wholly or partly within or wholly outside the territory of Bulgaria, must be carried out by properly trained staff in accordance with the regulations published in the ICAO Technical Instructions and adopted in the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations.
All personnel, who may be involved in the transportation of dangerous goods, are to be suitably trained according to the Technical Instruction in order to carry out their responsibilities in regard to the transport of dangerous goods.
NOTE: Personnel include all persons involved in the transport of dangerous goods, whether they are employees of FLY2SKY or not.
The Ground Operations Manager is responsible for ensuring compliance with regulations regarding the carriage of dangerous goods.
This includes overseeing the proper handling, documentation, and transportation procedures in accordance with applicable safety standards and regulatory requirements.
A number of limitations are placed on dangerous goods which are permitted to be transported by air.
It is therefore essential that appropriate care be exercised to ensure that no such goods are offered for transport.

This division comprises articles which predominantly contain extremely insensitive substances and which demonstrate a negligible probability of accidental initiation or propagation.
The segregation requirements apply based on all hazard labels applied on the package, irrespective of whether the hazard is the primary or subsidiary hazard.
Operators, freight forwarders and ground handling agents must also ensure that local government regulations applicable to the storage and handling of dangerous goods are complied with.
These local government regulations may impose a greater requirement than that specified in Table 9.3.A.
The segregation requirements apply based on all hazard labels applied on the package or overpack, irrespective of whether the hazard is the primary or subsidiary hazard.
