Royal Jordanian says it has successfully fulfilled
the requirements for renewing the International Air Transport
Association (IATA) Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) and the IATA
Safety Audit for Ground Operation (ISAGO) certificates granted to
the airline by IATA.
The airline states that this will
be the fourth time it would obtain the IOSA certificate since it
first acquired it in 2004, whereas the ISAGO certificate is now
renewed for the first time since it was awarded in 2008. RJ
President/CEO, Mr. Hussein Dabbas, who received the IOSA
certificate from Dr. Majdi Sabri, Regional Vice President for IATA
in the Middle East and North Africa, notes that the audit was
concluded without finding any irregularity. The airline's IOSA
certificate is effective until the end of 2012. RJ notes that
improved quality standards, reduced cost and high awareness are
some ISAGO benefits to the airline. It followed the completion of a
comprehensive audit of all ground-handling operations at Queen Alia
International Airport, conducted September 2010.
