Supporting Landing Permit Management for Glacier Park International Airport (IATA: FCA, ICAO: KGPI) with Just Aviation

To apply for a landing permit at Glacier Park International Airport, operators must submit several documents, including the Aircraft Registration Certificate, Airworthiness Certificate, Insurance Certificate, Pilot Licenses, a Flight Plan, a Noise Certificate, and Customs Documentation, which is required for international flights and includes passenger and crew manifests.

Landing permits are generally valid for the duration of the approved flight schedule, although specific validity periods may vary depending on the nature of the flight (e.g., charter, cargo). Airworthiness and Insurance Certificates must be valid at the time of application and throughout the duration of the flight operations.

Applications should be submitted at least 48 hours before the intended flight. For international flights, a lead time of 72 hours is recommended to ensure proper clearance and coordination. Operators should be aware of several unique requirements for Glacier Park International Airport, such as Customs and Border Protection (CBP) procedures, which require pilots to contact CBP at least one hour before the anticipated arrival time. Permission is granted with a tolerance of (+/-) 30 minutes. All inspections are carried out on the CBP ramp, and passengers must de-plane and be processed inside the CBP facility. For after-hours arrivals, appointments must be confirmed with the on-duty CBP Officer by 5:00 PM on the day of arrival.
