Société Internationale de Télécommunications Aéronautiques
 PROFILE
The far-flung air transport industry stays in touch because the Société Internationale de Télécommunications Aéronautiques (SITA) sees to it. A telecommunications services cooperative created by airlines to enable information sharing around the world, SITA now has about 740 members -- airlines, airports, aerospace companies, travel agencies, and governments -- in 220 countries. SITA provides some 1,800 customers with network services, including voice, data, Internet access, and Web hosting. In 2001 France Telecom bought SITA's stake in Equant, a SITA spinoff that markets data services to multinational companies outside the air transport industry. In the deal Equant took over management of SITA's data network.
