Airlines do not pay into the Air Travel Trust Fund. The ATT is principally funded by ATOL Protection Contributions (APC). The Civil Aviation (Contributions to the Air Travel Trust) Regulations 2007 enable the ATT to collect APCs from ATOL Holders for each person who books air travel covered by an ATOL. The Air Travel Trust Fund accounts are publicly available online.
