SITA Partnership

Why partner with SITA?

As the leading IT provider for the air transport community, SITA is determined to effect positive change in the industry. Many post-pandemic needs can be met by pushing innovation, technology, and strategic partnerships. Through SITA Launchpad, we welcome new partners who want to contribute to that change.

Global reach

SITA is present at over 1,000 airports around the world. We provide a unique service to over 400 air transport industry members and 2,500 customers in more than 200 countries and territories.

Air transport experts

As the world’s leading air transport communications and information technology specialist, we understand the industry’s business processes and its standards and regulations.

Beyond aviation

We are leaders in airport integration – airports, airlines, ground handlers, and governments work closely with us. We also see opportunities in cross-border markets where travelers have the same expectations as in aviation: railway, maritime, and events.

Four areas where we can partner

We continuously seek smarter ways to use existing and new technologies to ensure a more sustainable and resilient future. Multiple opportunities exist to co-create and explore ways to tackle today’s industry challenges.

We are keen to partner in four focus areas where we see strong market demand for new and efficient solutions: Digital identities, advanced analytics and data management, security and safety at airports, and sustainable alternative energy.

Learn more about each area:

Digital identities

At SITA, our vision of Digital Travel is a future where you can travel from anywhere to everywhere without ever needing to present your travel documents and without needing to stop to confirm your identity, check-in, cross a border, or access any number of services at your destination.

Advanced analytics and data management

SITA manages, exchanges and integrates huge amounts of the air transport industry's data every day. We meet the complex communication and data needs of over 2,500 air transport businesses worldwide helping them collaborate and communicate continuously, 24/7. We enable organizations to digitize and optimize operations, providing scalability and flexibility to deliver technical and commercial innovation.

Security and safety at airports

Leveraging our expertise in managing every aspect of passenger processing and airport operations, we want further to explore new safety and security features in our service offering to provide a truly holistic approach. Whether it is shortening queues as security or enhancing security around baggage.

Sustainable alternative energy

SITA is committed to helping aviation to be more sustainable and supporting the industry’s carbon reduction objectives through technology. Our approach is to provide solutions that help our customers measure, reduce, and better manage their emissions. We develop products that factor in sustainability by design; and to collaborate with industry partners to drive sustainable aviation.
