IATA Passenger and Airport Data Interchange Standards (IATA PADIS)
The IATA Passenger and Airport Data Interchange Standards (IATA PADIS) is a subset of EDI messages designed for use with both EDIFACT and XML syntaxes. IATA created it specifically as a standardized means of sharing passenger information between airlines, airports, governments and others in the aviation industry. It's even more specific than the broader IATA Cargo-IMP and Cargo XML standards.
Types of IATA PADIS Transactions
IATA PADIS covers all standard passenger interactions, such as flight check-in updates, boarding pass reprints, baggage transfers, itinerary pricing requests and ticketing control requests, among others.
Governing Body
- Jointly developed by IATA, its member airlines and Airlines for America (A4A)
