The syllabus of an IATA travel and tourism course in Kerala should combine travel-service knowledge with practical airline and reservation skills.

Key areas in the Speedwings program include IATA Foundation in Travel and Tourism, electronic booking tools, GDS reservation management, customer service and sales skills. The course also covers air fares, itinerary preparation, reservations and BSP ticketing. 

Students are introduced to airport layout and operations, ground and aircraft handling, ramp safety and security. Passenger-service learning includes check-in, baggage handling, visa processes, aircraft types and transit or terminating service formalities. 

The syllabus therefore combines travel agency work, airline reservation knowledge, airport awareness and customer communication rather than focusing only on tourism theory.
