SolitAir has appointed Dubai-based Aviation Training Center (ATC) as its preferred training services provider for dangerous goods (DG).
The transport of dangerous goods by air is governed by a strict, IATA-enforced framework of compliance obligations, revised annually to reflect emerging risks and evolving cargo profiles.
Additionally, the 67th edition of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations, mandatory from 1 January 2026, introduced updates across lithium battery shipment requirements, revised state variations and standardised operator variation wording.
The UAE’s dedicated B2B airport-to-airport cargo airline, SolitAir’s appointment is designed to equip it with advanced approaches, techniques and competencies in the handling and transport of DG.
SolitAir founder & CEO, Hamdi Osman, said: “The revised requirements enforced by IATA changes underline the need for rigorous, current-edition training across airline operations teams.
“Through this partnership, SolitAir will ensure our teams remain fully current with these evolving standards, further strengthening the safety, operational excellence and workforce capability already underpinning our DG operations (categories 1-9), which span lithium batteries, flammable liquids and other hazardous materials across our expanding network.”
