Air India gets IATA-IOSA certification till Jan 2010

Mumbai: The National Aviation Company of India Ltd (Air India) has recently obtained a renewal of its IATA-IOSA certification up to January 2010.
Nacil (I) Indian Airlines is hopeful of getting the certification soon. The merged entity is expected to be fully IATA-IOSA certified by February this year. Nacil sources have confirmed this development while talking to FE on Monday. Air India is one of the first carriers amongst the 10 global airlines to have got this certification initially in the year 2004. The IATA-IOSA certification was later renewed in May 2006.
The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) Programme is an internationally recognised and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline. IOSA uses internationally recognised quality audit principles, and is designed so that audits are conducted in a standardised and consistent manner.
Inherent in the IOSA programme is a degree of quality, integrity and security such that mutually interested airlines and regulators can all comfortably accept IOSA audit reports.
