Indigenous Airline Gets IOSA Certification
An indigenous airline and a Nigerian carrier, the United Nigeria Airlines, has said it has been registered as an International Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) Programme operator under the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
The airline, in a statement on Friday by its Chief Operating Officer, Mr Mazi Okonkwo, and made available to aviation correspondents, said the certification would enable the airline to expand its local and regional operations.
“We are extremely excited that we have formally achieved our target set on the first day of operation in accordance with best global standards.
“I must say that the audit process, which was thorough and tasking, has been a worthwhile exercise as it provided us invaluable opportunities to improve our processes and procedures.
“Our profound gratitude goes to the great team of United Nigeria that worked diligently and tirelessly to prepare and follow through the audit processes”, Okonkwo said.
He reassured the airline’s passengers of improvements in safety and other services it offers, which according to him, remains their commitment.
Also, the Senior Vice President, Operations, Safety and Security of IOSA, Nick Careen, commended the airline for the certification received.
Careen said the certification, under the IATA Operational Safety Audit Programme (IOSA), was in accordance with the provisions of the IOSA Programme Manual.
IATA is the global trade association of airline operators, which represents about 300 airlines with over 85 per cent of air traffic across the world.
The IATA vision is to ensure safe, secure and sustainable air transport across nations.
