Mogadishu (Caasimada Online) – The Federal Government of Somalia has announced that it has restored the ticketing system of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), as stated by the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation, Mohamed Farah Noor.

The Minister, while providing a report to the Council of Ministers of Somalia, stated that the ministry has succeeded in restoring this system, which enables the country to officially participate in the management and monitoring of flight ticketing.

This step has been praised by the Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation, and it has been encouraged to expedite the fulfillment of its responsibilities, in order to ensure the implementation of the expected benefits from this system.

Somalia tested this system on April 30, 2026, which is aimed at verifying the accuracy of tickets and monitoring the revenue generated. The IATA organization, established in 1945, uses this system to coordinate ticketing services and the operations of airlines.

The restoration of this system could facilitate Somalia in verifying tickets and using international codes to identify airports and airlines.

On the other hand, this system is expected to create economic opportunities and collaborations that Somalia can benefit from, as it simplifies dealings with airlines and the management of ticketing data.

The implementation of this system is also crucial for the development of air transport services in the country, as it is expected to contribute to enhancing the efficiency of ticket management and monitoring the revenue generated from airline services.
