Accreditations & awards
Verifiable, not decorative.
Arika Group is an IATA-accredited travel house, code 14359656, holding IATO, TAAI, TAFI, PATA, OTOAI, MTOA and EEMA memberships and Ministry of Tourism recognition. Every accreditation below links to the issuing body, so it can be checked at source rather than taken on our word.
Accreditations
Nine bodies, all current.
An accreditation is only useful if it can be checked. IATA membership means Arika issues air tickets directly through BSP on its own number rather than through a consolidator. IATO, TAAI and TAFI are the principal Indian trade bodies for tour operators and travel agents; PATA covers the Asia-Pacific trade and MTOA the Maharashtra operators; OTOAI the outbound trade; EEMA the events industry, held by Arika Event; and Ministry of Tourism recognition is granted after inspection.
