The (IATA) is the world trade organization of scheduled airlines. IATA s nearly 270 members carry more than 95 percent of the world s scheduled international air traffic under the flags of more than 120 nations. IATA s mission is to ensure that worldwide airline traffic moves with the greatest possible speed, safety, security, convenience and efficiency for passengers and cargo shippers and with the utmost economy and financial viability for the airlines.
