Answer:
COUNTRY CHOSEN
FRANCEITALY
The most visited tourist attraction in Paris, the Eiffel Tower also ranks
high on the list of places to visit in France. It's hardTo believe that the
structure was dismissed as amonstrosity when it was first unveiled. The
iconictower was designed by Alexandre-Gustave Eiffelfor the Paris Exhibition
of 1889, which marked thecentenary of the French Revolution.
The tower consists of 18,000 sturdy iron sections
(weighing over 10,000 tons) held together by 2.5 million
rivets. This innovative structure is now considered a masterful architectural
feat and is the most emblematic sight in Paris.
Visitors can take an elevator or walk up the 360 steps to arrive at the first
level (at 57 meters) and 344 more steps to the second level (at 115 meters).
The outlooks from both the first and second level are spectacular. To reach the
top level, at the dizzying elevation of 276 meters, requires an exhilarating
elevator ride from the second level. Visiting the top level is one of the most
thrilling things to do in Paris, but it's not for the faint of heart.
Louvre Museum
A sumptuous palace that was once the home of France's Kings, the Louvre is the
most important of paris’ top museums . Visitors enter the museum in the
courtyard of the palace at the glass pyramid(designed by Ieoh Ming Pei in
1917). TheLouvre Museum possesses more than30,000 artworks (many
consideredmasterpieces)-from antiquities to Europeanpaintings of the 15th to
19th centuries.
It is impossible to see it all in one visit, but
tourists can focus on a particular gallery, such as classical sculpture, Italian
Renaissance art, or 17th-century French paintings, or take a self-guided tour to
see the Louvre Museum's highlights.
The most famous piece is the Mona Lisa or La Gioconda (or La Joconde in
French) painted by Leonardo da Vinci in 1503-1505. Other exceptional works
are the ancient Venus de Milo sculpture, the monumental Victory of
Samothrace of the Hellenistic period, the immense Wedding Feast at
Cana painting by Veronese (1563), and Botticelli's frescoes. Also a must-see
is Liberty Leading the People (1831) by Eugène Delacroix, depicting the Parisian
uprising of July 27th to 29th, 1830 known as "Trois Glorieuses" ("Three
Glorious Days").
Arc de triomphe
The Arc de Triomphe is dedicated to the soldiers who fought in the French armies of
the Revolution and the First Empire (Napoleonic Wars). Napoleon commissioned the
building of this mighty structure in 1806 but did not live to see its completion in 1836.
Designed by JF Chalgrin, the massive 50-meter-high arch features bas-reliefs with
larger-than-life-size figures, which depict the departure, victories, and glorious return
of the French armies.
Particularly noteworthy is the bas-relief by François Rude on the Champs-Elysées-
facing side: Departure of the Volunteers of 1792, also known as The Marseillaise,
illustrating the troops led by the winged spirit of Liberty. On the inner surface of the
arch are the names of more than 660 generals and more than a hundred battles.
From the top of the monument, a viewing platform affords panoramic views of the 12
avenues that radiate from the Place de l'Etoile, including the route from the Champs-
Elysées to Place de la Concorde and the Louvre. It's possible to see all the way to La
Défense, Montmartre, and the Eiffel Tower.
But the reason most tourists visit Santa Maria delle Grazie
is to see da Vinci's most famous work, painted on the
refectory wall of the former Dominican monastery.
The Cenacolo Vinciano, as it is called here, was painted on
the wall in tempera between 1495 and 1497. Instead of
earlier static representations of Christ's last meal with his
disciples, Da Vinci presents a dramatic depiction of the
scene, which was quite novel and marked an important
new stage in the development of art. This 3.5-hour
walking tour takes you to several key attractions and
includes admission to La Scala and an entrance ticket to
see The Last Supper.

with the UN/NGO/ECOSOC, and works closely with other world bodies such as
UNESCO, WHO for a sustainable development and responsible tourism.UFTAA is a

International Air Transport Association, the International Hotel and Restaurant
Association, the International Union of Railways and other organizations. The UFTAA
is an affiliate member of the WTO - World Tourism Organization.
PATA
Answer - The PATA India Chapter was established in 1974 with a handful of members.
It has grown to include 245 members and is one of the most dynamic Chapters in the
Asia Pacific region today.With major support from the Ministry of Tourism,
Government of India which is the main and largest PATA India member organization,
the Chapter includes State Tourism Boards, Carriers, Hotels, Travel Agents, Tour
Operators, Service Providers and other travel-related companies.PATA S first asian

techniques of international air navigation and fosters the planning and development of
international air transport to ensure safe and orderly growth . Its headquarters is
located in the Quartier International of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.ICAO is the global
forum for civil aviation, works to achieve its vision of safe, secure and sustainable
development of civil aviation through the cooperation of its Member States
Strategic Objectives
ICAO Strategic Objectives 2011-2013
As the global forum for cooperation among its Member States and with the world
aviation community, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) sets
standards and recommended practices for the safe and orderly development of
international civil aviation. In its ongoing mission to foster a global civil aviation
system that consistently and uniformly operates at peak efficiency and provides
optimum safety, security and sustainability.
Warsaw Convention
Answer - The Convention for the Unification of certain rules relating to international
carriage by air, commonly known as the Warsaw Convention, is an international
convention which regulates liability for international carriage of persons, luggage, or
goods performedby aircraft for reward.
Originally signed in 1929 in Warsaw (hence the name), it was amended in 1955 at The
Hague, Netherlands, and in 1971 in Guatemala City, Guatemala. United States courts
have held that, at least for some purposes, the Warsaw Convention is a different
instrument from the Warsaw Convention as amended by the Hague Protocol.
Montreal Convention
Answer - The Montreal Convention (formally, the Convention for the Unification of
Certain Rules for International Carriage by Air) is a multilateral treaty adopted by a
diplomatic meeting of ICAO member states in 1999. It amended important provisions
of the Warsaw Convention's regime concerning compensation for the victims of air
disasters.
The Convention attempts to re-establish uniformity and predictability of rules relating
to the international carriage of passengers, baggage and cargo. Whilst maintaining the
core provisions which have served the international air transport community for
several decades (i.e., the Warsaw regime), the new treaty achieves modernization in a
number of key areas. It protects passengers by introducing a two-tier liability system
that eliminates the previous requirement of proving willful neglect by the air carrier to
obtain more than US$75,000 in damages, which should eliminate or reduce protracted
litigation.
Chicago Convention
Answer - Chicago Convention, established the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO), a specialized agency of the UN charged with coordinating and regulating
international air travel.
The convention establishes rules of airspace, aircraft registration and safety, and
details the rights of the signatories in relation to air travel. The Convention also
exempts air fuels in transit from (double) taxation.

Conclusion
Finally, After my air travel management module, I came to know the importance of air travel
management and able to understand that tourism sector is not only in a major contributor to
the growth of the economy but a generator of employments opportunities as well. And from
this topic I also came to know about the both countries France and Italy and also the customs
of both the countries and their culture and traditions are. In the other hand I came to know
about the various organisations like IATA, UFTAA, PATA , ICAO and also know about the
various concentrations and the most important that is freedoms of air. Here I thank to our
faculty Mr.Kaushik Aditya once again for his all contributions.
THANK YOU
