Civil Air Traffic

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS)’ roles are to enable the growth of the air hub and aviation industry, oversee and promote safety in the industry, provide air navigation services, and develop Singapore as a centre of excellence for aviation knowledge and human resource development.

Following the corporatisation of Changi Airport on 1 July 2009, the operations of Changi Airport, including the collection of data on passengers, airfreight, airmail and aircraft traffic passing through Changi Airport and Seletar Aerodrome, are managed by the Changi Airport Group Pte Ltd (CAG). Statistics on passenger, airfreight, parcel mail and aircraft movements are compiled by the CAAS from the data collected by the CAG.

Statistics on land transport in Singapore come under the purview of the LTA.
