A Valuable Security Tool for Globe-Spanning ALPA Members
 
As another benefit of ALPA membership, the National Security Committee provides an outstanding planning tool to help determine the safety and security of your worldwide destinations. The resource is called “World Watch,” an all-inclusive, continually updated intelligence database that contains real-time information for more than 180 countries and major cities around the globe.
The recently introduced World Watch version 6.0 features city and national histories, and it charts current threat-level information. The program provides maps displaying high-risk areas, discusses current events and activities, and is an excellent reference tool for any pilot looking for information about a domestic or international layover.
World Watch has many useful features, including but not limited to:
  • In-depth risk forecasting and analysis (political and security)
  • Digital maps
  • Real-time alerts
  • Detailed and continuous coverage of breaking events
  • Threat-level ratings
  • Country and city profiles
  • Essential travel and cultural data
  • Business information and demographics
  • Local law enforcement capabilities
  • Transportation concerns and safety
  • Detailed airport information
  • 365-day security events database
  • Calendar of significant dates
  • Issues for female travelers
  • Local restrictions
  • Aviation issues
  • Medical and health information
To access World Watch 6.0, log on to Crewroom.alpa.org, click on the Committees tab, then click on the National Security Committee link. From there, click on the World Watch Global Security Info icon on the left side of the page. Access via the NSC website is the only way to obtain World Watch’s premium content.
