Luftfahrtgesellschaft Walter (LGW) has successfully passed the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) of the International Air Transport Association (IATA). On this basis, it will apply for membership in the IATA.
The IOSA is the worldwide industry standard for operational quality and safety procedures in air traffic. During certification, all operational departments such as organization, flight operations, aircraft maintenance and cabin crew are checked for the course of established procedures. IATA is an international association representing some 290 airlines or 82% of all air traffic. Its members play a major role in shaping industrial policy issues in aviation.
This means that both airlines of the Zeitfracht Group are certified with the IOSA. In addition to LGW, WDL Aviation, which has already been successfully audited in the past, is also part of the Berlin family business.
Luftfahrtgesellschaft Walter mbH (LGW) is an airline founded in 1980 and active in regional and feeder traffic. It has its headquarters at Dortmund Airport and further locations in Düsseldorf and Stuttgart. The company is a leading provider in the wet lease business. LGW was taken over by the Berlin-based Zeitfracht Group in April 2019.
