@iata.orgWeather can change significantly once an ✈️ is in the air. At #IATAWSOC, experts explored how live satellite and lightning data can complement pre-flight forecasts, helping pilots and dispatchers spot hazards earlier and make better-informed decisions.
@iata.orgFrom integrating advanced air mobility and improving fuel efficiency to helping cabin crew deliver on safety, explore key topics shaping aviation safety and operations discussed on Day 2 of #IATAWSOC.
@iata.orgIn an ✈️ crisis, AI helps responders act faster by:
1️⃣ Managing call surges
2️⃣ Reuniting personal effects
3️⃣ Supporting victim identification
4️⃣ Connecting medical expertise to the aircraft
But the most sensitive decisions remain human.

@iata.orgSafety starts long before the audit. ✈️ #IOSA airlines recorded 1 accident per 1.09M flights in 2025, versus 1 per 0.39M for non-IOSA operators. With risk-based IOSA, preparation matters more than ever. Safety is built through continuous readiness.
@iata.org🧑✈️👩✈️ Pilots at #IATAWSOC shared what it takes to turn fuel-efficiecny goals into flight-deck action:
✅ Empower, don't preach.
✅ Never compromise the Captain's authority on safe fuel decisions.
✅ Communicate the “why” as clearly as the “what”.
@iata.org✈️ From safety culture and IOSA audits to geopolitical risk, technology, and crisis management, explore the key topics shaping aviation safety and operations in the latest Airlines. special edition for #IATAWSOC

@iata.orgTen years after CORSIA, govts must strengthen the global framework for ✈️ emissions. Aviation is a global industry that needs global solutions. Govts should reinforce CORSIA, not create overlapping regional or bilateral measures that risk fragmentation.
@iata.org✈️ Aviation is safer today than it was a decade ago. What will drive the next step change in safety?
At #IATAWSOC, IATA highlighted 3️⃣ pillars for the next advances in aviation safety: people, technology, and standards.
@iata.orgAviation safety keeps improving: from 1 fatal accident per 3.5M flights a decade ago to 1 per 5.6M flights in 2025. But 394 onboard fatalities last year remind us there is more work to do.
#IATAWSOC highlights how People, Technology and Standards must work together 👇
