<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

An Approved Driver is an individual who is employed as a driver either on a seasonal, part-time, full-time basis. The Approved Driver may escort Non-ZUB pass holders who have a valid ticket for air travel and an in-date passport into MPC and directly to the terminal enclave. All Approved Drivers are required to also hold a Contractor ZUB pass. The purpose of the Approved Driver Scheme is to address British Forces South Atlantic Islands (BFSAI) concerns in respect of control of access to MPC by civilian air passengers. Approved Driver application forms are available below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
