92. Give an explanation about the International
Travel Organizations like IATA, UFTAA,

international air transport service
Today, that pioneering work is reflected in the currently
applicable IATA Resolutions dealing with these and
many other subjects. Notable examples are:
The Multilateral Interline Traffic Agreements: These
are the basis for the airlines interline network. Close to
300 airlines have signed them, accepting each others
tickets and air waybills - and thus their passenger and

122. With the help of this assignment, I came to know about
the various countries, cities, attractions, rules,
regulations, airlines and so on. This assignment made
me to think about the various scopes and possibilities
of the air-travel industry. I learned how to issue a
ticket, about international travel organizations,
freedoms of air, travel itinerary preparations, flight
schedule and so on. At this juncture, I would like to
thank our Travel Faculty, Mrs. Latha Sundararaman,
for guiding me through the entire course and
advising and supporting me to complete this
assignment successfully.
