Except for repetitive flight plans, a flight plan shall be submitted at least 60 minutes prior to departure, taking into account the requirements of ATS units in the airspace along the routes to be flown for timely information, including requirements for early submission for Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) purposes.

All changes to a flight plan submitted for an IFR flight or a controlled VFR flight and significant changes to a flight plan submitted for an uncontrolled VFR flight shall be reported as soon as possible to the appropriate ATS unit. In the event of a delay in departure of 30 MIN or more for a flight for which a flight plan has been submitted, the flight plan shall be amended or a new flight plan shall be submitted after the old plan has been cancelled.
Note 1: If a delay in departure of a controlled flight is not properly reported, the relevant flight plan data may no longer be readily available to the appropriate ATS unit when a clearance limit is ultimately requested, which will consequently result in extra delay for the flight.
Note 2: If a delay in departure (or cancellation) of an uncontrolled VFR flight is not properly reported, alerting or search and rescue action may be unnecessarily initiated when a flight fails to arrive at the destination aerodrome within 30 MIN after its current ETA.
Whenever a flight, for which a flight plan has been submitted, is cancelled, the appropriate ATS unit shall be informed immediately.
Changes to a current flight plan for a controlled flight during flight shall be reported or requested, subject to the provisions in ICAO Annex 2, paragraph 3.6.2 (Adherence to flight plan). Significant changes to a flight plan for uncontrolled VFR flight include changes in endurance or in total number of persons on board and changes in time estimates of 30 MIN or more.
A report of arrival shall be made at the earliest possible moment after landing to the airport office of the arrival aerodrome by any flight for which a flight plan has been submitted exempt when the arrival has been acknowledged by the local ATS unit. After landing at the aerodrome which is not the destination aerodrome (diversionary landing), the local ATS unit shall be specifically informed accordingly. In the absence of a local ATS unit at the aerodrome of diversionary landing, the pilot is responsible for passing the arrival report to the destination aerodrome. Arrival reports shall contain the following elements of information:
Aircraft identification
Departure aerodrome
Destination aerodrome
Time of arrival
In case of diversion, insert the “arrival aerodrome” between “destination aerodrome” and “time of arrival”.
The following FPL requirements apply to operators of RVSM approved aircraft intending to conduct flights within SAL OCEANIC FIR / UIR RVSM airspace:
