Bangkok--9 Jun--Thai Airways
Thai Airways International Public Company Limited (THAI) was presented with the IATA IOSA registration certificate.
The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) program is an internationally recognized and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline, and is the benchmark for global safety management in airlines. All IATA members are IOSA registered and must remain registered to maintain IATA membership.
Mr. Charamporn Jotikasthira, THAI President, said that THAI is proud to have made this achievement as THAI's aim is to provide consistent service excellence with high safety operations. THAI was one of the first few airlines certified by the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) program; and in 2004, just a few years after the IOSA program was launched, Thai Airways International became the first airline in Thailand to be an IOSA-registered airline. Today, THAI is a recurring registrant of the upgraded "Enhanced IOSA" program, having demonstrated effective management and control systems of flight operations with high safety standards.
Presenting the certification on behalf of IATA was Mr. John Moore, IATA Assistant Director of Safety and Flight Operations, Asia-Pacific who congratulated THAI for this major achievement.
