The CAA doesn't just look at your numbers; they look at your risk. Most applications stall because of financial models that aren't "stress-tested" for CAA scrutiny or bonding that doesn't align with the actual commercial model.
Don't let the overlap fool you. ABTA's net asset benchmarks and bonding methodologies are a different beast entirely. Meeting ATOL standards doesn't guarantee ABTA approval.
The Unified Approach: We synchronize your ABTA and ATOL applications. By coordinating both, we eliminate duplicate work and ensure you aren't hit with conflicting financial commitments.
IATA’s Local Financial Criteria are notoriously rigid. Even agencies with healthy ATOL standing can fail IATA’s net worth or turnover ratios. Plus, once you're in, the Billing and Settlement Plan (BSP) requires a cash management strategy that many agencies overlook.
Our Edge: We ensure your infrastructure meets ticketing staff requirements and your cash flow is prepared for the BSP settlement cycle before it becomes a problem.

We have worked with Charley Cohen at TIC for the past two years to assist with obtaining and managing our ATOL licence, and the experience has been excellent throughout. Charley has always been professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive, making what can often be a complex process feel straightforward and stress-free. His attention to detail, responsiveness, and understanding of the travel industry have given us complete confidence that our ATOL requirements are always handled properly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Charley and TIC to any travel business looking for reliable support with ATOL licensing and ongoing compliance.
