During the IATA Aviation Energy Forum, held in Baku, Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL), operating under the Azerbaijan Transport and Communications Holding (AZCON Holding), announced that it had joined the IATA Environmental Assessment (IEnvA) program.

The agreement was signed by Jamil Manizade, Chief Commercial Officer at AZAL, and Funda Calisir, IATA’s Area Manager for Türkiye, Central Asia, and Azerbaijan.

IEnvA is a certification program, developed to independently assess the commitment of aviation stakeholders such as airlines, airports, cargo handling facilities, freight forwarders, MROs, caterers, and ramp handlers to continuously improve their environmental and sustainability performance. Based on globally recognized standards and industry best practices, including the ISO 14001 environmental management system standard and the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA), it is a voluntary, subscription-based, turnkey solution for environmental management.

Once IEnvA-certified, AZAL will be able to better assess, manage, and optimize its environmental impact across various operational areas. It will improve its environmental performance and establish a more systematic approach in this field. “Caspian Energy Media” reports with reference to the Azerbaijan Airlines.
