Air travel to the United States has become more complicated as transportation authorities adopt stricter security measures following the Christmas Day attempt to blow up a Detroit-bound Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam. Carry-on baggage has been restricted and travellers are undergoing more thorough screening.

We are pleased that Steve Lott, head of North American communications for the International Air Transport Association, joined us for an online discussion. Mr. Lott took your questions on coping with the recent changes to air travel.

IATA is an international trade body representing some 230 airlines around the world. Mr. Lott is the chief media spokesman for IATA in the region. In addition to media relations, Mr. Lott handles internal communications with IATA member representatives in North America in addition to other important stakeholders in the region, including government agencies and manufacturers.

Before joining IATA, Mr. Lott worked for nearly a decade as a journalist and editor for Aviation Daily and Aviation Week & Space Technology magazine, both major trade publications.
