Turkish Cargo, the fastest-growing air cargo airline in the world with continuously prospering operations, became the first air cargo airline to concurrently obtain all three “CEIV Pharma, CEIV Fresh, and CEIV Live Animals” certifications, under the IATA CEIV (Centre of Excellence for Independent Validators) programme.
Having satisfied the requirements for the certifications in the wake of the training, assessment and validation processes created by IATA, Turkish Cargo became a holder of the CEIV certificates which represent its approach based on excellence for the special cargo operations. The certifications have a validity period of three years.
“We make much of the IATA CEIV certificates that prove that we meet the international standards at our special cargo operations, during such a vulnerable and critical period,”remarked Turhan Ozen, Chief Cargo Officer, Turkish Airlines.
“Turkish Cargo deserves to be praised for becoming not only the world’s first air cargo airline to concurrently hold all three CEIV certificates, but also the first air cargo airline in Europe to have obtained the CEIV Live Animals Certificate,” commented Glyn Hughes, Global Head of Cargo, IATA.
