Minister of Transport: Restructuring the airlines and converting them into a holding company

Transport Minister Kazem al-Yamami said on Sunday that the plan for the development of Iraqi Airways will include three important steps, including restructuring the airline and converting it into a holding company, stressing the intention of his ministry to enroll 105 aviation students with the latest international institutes.
“This is the first time that the Ministry of Transport has achieved this qualitative leap since 2003,” Al-Hamami said in a speech at a ceremony celebrating the rehabilitation of 40 Iraqi pilots at Baghdad airport, followed by Al-Ittihad News. “It is hoped that 12 young pilots will join the promising hawks. The ministry’s intention to enroll 105 students with the latest international institutes, which was selected in 2014 and did not have the opportunity to involve them in foreign courses.
Al-Hamami added that punctuality, uniform and safety and safety procedures inside the plane would contribute to lifting the ban on Iraqi Airways. Iraqi pilots are considered to have the competence to make most international airlines rely on them. However, in Iraq they suffer to engage in training courses. .
The airline’s development plan will include three important steps, including restructuring the airline and turning it into a holding company, creating a new airline company that is able to reach Europe, and finding solutions for aircraft on the ground, he said.
