Which ATCF classification provides only flight planning service?

ATCF classifications distinguish the scope of services a facility provides. A Class I Flight Planning Facility is designed specifically to assist with flight planning—giving weather briefings, route and fuel planning, and filing flight plans—without offering actual air traffic control or separation services. That makes it the option that provides flight planning exclusively. The other facility classes deliver live ATC services (such as tower, approach/departure, or en route control), which involve directing and separating air traffic rather than just planning a flight.
