New Delhi: India should formulate a national aviation policy to facilitate growth in the sector, said Tony Tyler, Director-General of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) here on Tuesday.
“The call is not for special favours or preferential treatment,” Tyler said at the inaugural Aviation Day India meet. The IATA head was of the view that the agenda to improve infrastructure, reduce costs and evolve a more reasonable taxation structure was absolutely critical to India’s long-term success.
Pointing out that security was a top priority not only of Governments but also airlines, the IATA chief was of the opinion that the current “one-size-fits all” prospective approach to security for both cargo and passengers is not sustainable.
