| Abstract: | The air transport industry is currently facing new challenges in virtually every aspect of its daily operations. As the trade association and parliament of the world's scheduled international and domestic airlines, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) is adapting to meet the needs of its 144 members and of the aviation market place. Dr Günter Eser, Director General of IATA, discusses the impact of the changes in relation to deregulation and liberalization; national anti-trust and competition laws; the automation revolution; and IATA's involvement in helping airlines of developing nations to become self-sufficient and to play their full part in the overall pattern of international air transport. Dr Eser describes IATA's role in technical matters; the relationship with travel agents; and the vital topic of security. He concludes that adaptability and versatility are the keynotes of IATA's changing role in the future. |
