Willie Walsh, Director General of International Air Transport Association – IATA

Willie Walsh, Director General of International Air Transport Association (IATA), speaks to Reji John, Editor of STAT Media Group, on the side-lines of the World Cargo Symposium held in Istanbul recently. He talks in detail about the top three priorities of IATA for the air cargo industry - sustainability, digitalization and safety. He gives huge credit to air cargo sector which generated cash for the industry through the depths of the crisis. He is equally shocked to see how different the cargo side of the business is to passenger side when it comes to the digital transformation.
