Testimonials of IATA Strategic Partners

"For AccesRail, the IATA Strategic Partnership has been of great use in helping us to understand and adapt to airline industry standards. This, in turn, has aided us significantly in developing strong ties with the airline world. As a result, our railway partners now have the ability to interline or code share with airlines in a seamless fashion from sales to settlement following all IATA industry standard rules. Without IATA, we would not have become the ‘airline on rail tracks’ that we are now."

Denis Grenier, VP Business Development

With our mission to help make the market for sustainable jet fuel, the IATA organization, knowledge and network has proven to be invaluable. The two IATA Fuel Forums always represent the highlights on our event calendar as it brings together the entire global jet fuel population. Next to that the great work that the IATA Biofuel team has done in cooperation with ATAG and ICAO has really helped to pave the way for adoption of sustainable jet fuel. SkyNRG is proud to be a strategic partner of IATA. "

As a strategic partner of IATA, Lufthansa Systems is in close contact with the organization about significant changes in the airline industry such as the introduction of NDC and ONE Order. Thanks to IATA's working groups initiative we benefit from a direct involvement in shaping upcoming industry trends, which enables us to better design changes to our products in collaboration with our airline customers. The working groups are also a substantial facilitator when it comes to the implementation of our NDC and ONE Order pilot project in which we set up a full end-to-end process together with a major airline. NDC and ONE Order messages were used for shopping, ordering, payment and delivery processes. The airline even went live with this solution in a regular scheduled flights environment. Our brand new Dynamic Pricing Solution and our revenue accounting product SIRAX® were also integrated into this pilot.

The close partnership with IATA is very beneficial for Lufthansa Systems and strengthens our position as one of the world's leading providers of IT services in the airline industry."
