THE International Air Transport Association (Iata) called for greater collaboration between governments and airlines to enhance aviation security, amid concerns that the laptop ban implemented by the United States could be extended further.
In his opening address at Iata's annual general meeting in Cancun on Monday, Iata director-general Alexandre de Juniac criticised the measure, highlighting that there had been little coordination or collaboration, which caught the airline industry offguard.
