It is critical to resolve supply chain issues and for airports to operate at max efficiency to meet demand: IATA

Demand for travel is strong, says Willie Walsh, IATA’s Director General, adding, “That means making urgent progress to resolve supply chain issues and for airports and air traffic management to be fully staffed and operating at maximum efficiency. While airlines are prepared for customer care and assistance when operational issues arise, they are fed-up of bearing the cost when delays and cancellations are the result of poor preparation in other parts of the value chain.”
