As an analyst with over two decades of experience in the global finance sector, I find the integration of the digital yuan into the International Air Transport Association (IATA) billing systems by 2024 to be a significant stride towards the mainstream adoption of digital currencies. This move is a testament to the evolving nature of payment preferences and the need for adaptability in the financial industry.
By the end of 2024, an international organization representing worldwide airlines plans to incorporate the digital version of the Chinese currency, the Digital Yuan, into their invoicing system in order to expand the available payment methods.
By the year 2024, the International Air Transport Association intends to integrate China’s central bank digital currency, commonly referred to as the digital yuan or e-CNY, into its payment and reconciliation processes, demonstrating the increasing use of digital currencies in international finance.
According to Muhammad Albakri, IATA’s senior vice president of Financial Settlement and Distribution Services, as reported by Times Aerospace on October 29th, it’s crucial that we adapt to changing payment trends.
As digital currencies become more popular, it’s crucial for IATA’s financial settlement systems within the industry to evolve and cater to the requirements of its service users.

The digital version of China’s currency can now be accessed through the China Billing and Settlement Plan, as a result of a recommendation from IATA’s China Airline Committee. Moreover, IATA is contemplating the incorporation of other digital currencies into its settlement mechanisms, but specifics about their integration or a schedule for implementation have yet to be disclosed.
This year, IATA incorporated the Renminbi Offshore into its Currency Settlement System, now supporting 74 different currencies. This means airlines can handle their revenue transactions in their chosen currency, enhancing cash management and minimizing exposure to foreign exchange risks.
By October, Changchun Mu, head of the digital currency institute at China’s People’s Bank, revealed that as early as July, the digital yuan platform had enrolled approximately 180 million individual wallets and processed a grand total of ¥7.3 trillion ($1.02 trillion) in transactions across test regions.
