In anticipation of IATA’s new standardised reporting procedures worldwide, the Travel Agents Federation of India (TAFI) has agreed to participate in its pilot programme that will start from October this year. Four members (one each from Delhi and Ahmedabad and two from Mumbai) have agreed to be a part of it. Commenting on this, Pradip Lulla, Vice President, TAFI, said, “We are doing a pilot run on enhanced reporting for IATA and the participating agents will give their inputs once it is completed. IATA workshops will be held in different regions when they are introducing it in India where agents can come and understand the new reporting procedures.” He said that the new system of reporting will be simplified and more graphic. Everything else will remain the same. “It will help agents to have a better report, that’s all,” he said.
In its recently held MC meet, TAFI worked out a vision for the next two years. “We have also chalked out various aspects where we can contribute and delegate. We have formed various committees that will be headed by different chairmen. Committees and their chairmen are still being confirmed,” Lulla added. TAFI is looking to add more members, specially under the allied category such as hotels and tour operators who aren’t necessarily IATA members. The association is also looking to create a common platform for members that will allow them to interact and do business with each other. “We are meeting some companies who can do this for us,” Lulla revealed.
