Qatar Airways chief executive officer, HE Akbar Al Baker has been re-elected onto the Chair Committee of International Air Transport Association (IATA). Al Baker was elected to IATA’s Board of Governors at the Association’s 68th Annual General Meeting (AGM) in June 2012, and will be serving on the Board until the conclusion of IATA’s 71st AGM in 2015.
In June 2013, Al Baker was elected to serve on the Chair Committee for a one-year term and has been re-elected to serve for a second one-year term until the end of IATA’s 71st AGM, scheduled to be held in Miami in June 2015. The Chair Committee acts on behalf of and is accountable to the Board of Governors with respect to the duties and authority delegated to it by the Board. It is responsible for overseeing financial performance and governance of the association.
“With the formidable rise of air passenger traffic and new players to this industry, a global framework where industry partners gather and collaborate only brings benefits to all concerned within the IATA membership,” said Al Baker.
He further added: “It is my aim to continue the good work of IATA and help raise the bar for member airlines in this highly competitive industry.”
