ROYAL Jordanian Airlines has joined The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA).

Ingo Roessler, vice-president cargo for the airline, said: “Royal Jordanian has made great advances during the last three years, achieving continuous profit and joining one of the leading alliances for passenger services: oneworld. Our cargo business is striving to make similar progress and joining TIACA, the world’s leading cargo association, supports this objective.

Jack Boisen, chairman of TIACA and vice-president cargo at Continental Airlines, said: “We welcome Royal Jordanian Airlines as a member of TIACA and, in particular, its commitment to supporting the many areas we are working in. Our goal is to create a fairer, freer, faster and less regulated environment for an industry that is vital to world trade and a driver of global economic development. TIACA’s membership is at an all-time high and we welcome more members that want to join us in working to improve the air cargo industry for its service providers and customers.”
