IATA Expands Presence in United Arab Emirates

05 December 2024 (Abu Dhabi) – The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has opened an expanded office in Abu Dhabi featuring a new training center. This demonstrates IATA's commitment to supporting the Middle East's growing aviation sector and fostering the next generation of industry professionals.

'The expansion of IATA's presence in the UAE with a new training center reinforces the country's position as a global aviation hub.

By expanding our physical presence in this global aviation hub, we will be able to support our airline members, trainees from across the aviation value chain and the industry's many stakeholders more efficiently. Our aim is to facilitate the further successful growth of the region's aviation sector, which is a strategic contributor to the region's social and economic development,' said Kamil Alawadhi, IATA's Regional Vice-President for Africa and the Middle East.
