Saudia secures eleventh consecutive IOSA certification under new RBI framework.
Saudia, the national flag carrier of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has renewed the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) under the newly introduced Risk-Based IATA Operational Safety Audit (RBI) framework. This secures Saudia’s IOSA registration for the eleventh consecutive time.
This year’s audit marked a major achievement for Saudia, being its first under the RBI framework, which represents the next evolution in aviation safety oversight, focusing on airline-specific risk profiles and performance data to deliver a more targeted and predictive assessment.
The audit covered eight core domains: Organisation Management, Aviation Security, Flight Operations, Flight Dispatch, In-Flight Services, Maintenance Management, Ground Operations, and Cargo Operations.
Mohamed Dahduli, Vice President of Safety, Aviation Security & Quality at Saudia, stated: “Safety is at the core of everything we do at Saudia. Renewing our IOSA registration once again reflects the strength of our safety culture and the robustness of our operational systems. It’s a proud moment that highlights the dedication of our teams and our ongoing commitment to meeting and exceeding global aviation standards”.
As Saudia expands its global reach and modernises its operations, this recognition reinforces the airline’s leadership in aviation safety and readiness to thrive in an increasingly complex and competitive industry.
