WHAT IS IATA? ITS ROLE AND FUNCTIONS

Safety

The main priority of the organization is to ensure the safety of aircrafts and the air travelers. IATA has set up panels to devise safety standards for the air carriers and professionals to ascertain that the rules are regulations are strictly observed. These efforts by IATA ushered many improvements in terms of air travel safety and the number of air accidents has been drastically reduced.

Security

The airplanes are prone to terrorism and hijack activities. After the mounting amounts of hijack cases and the September 11 attacks, IATA has made stringent reforms and made provisions to tighten the security of airlines. The system works on the basis of passenger differentiation and risk assessment.

Environment

Air travel contributes to the air pollution in a big way and it consumes tonnes of fuel. In wake of this IATA teamed up with aircraft manufacturers to develop energy efficient, less polluting engines. These efforts were helpful in improving the fuel efficiency to 1.5 per annum. The carbon emissions caused by aircraft engines were reduced and the organization is now aiming for a 50% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050.

Services

Apart from policy-making and regulatory services, IATA renders much training and consulting services. Here are some services proffered by the organization to augment the standards of airlines and air travel:
