Dear Madam / Sir, I am a citizen of Kosovo. I am disappointed that I am unable to find Kosovo on the list of countries on the flight schedules database provided from Innovata. We have contacted some of the airports that use your services, and they have said that this can only be changed through your company. As you might be aware, Kosovo is a new country so far recognized as independent by the majority of members of the United Nations, including the United States, United Kingdom and the majority of European Union countries. Kosovo has also become a member of intergovernmental bodies including the World Bank and IMF. Leading Internet properties such a LinkedIn and Twitter have now added Kosovo to their menus. Legally, Kosovo had its independence confirmed by the International Court of Justice (ICJ). The ICJ on 22 of July 2010 concluded on its decision “that the adoption of the declaration of independence of 17 February 2008 did not violate general international law, Security Council resolution 1244 (1999) or the Constitutional Framework. Consequently the adoption of that declaration did not violate any applicable rule of international law.” (see para. 122 of the Court’s decision: http://www.icj-cij.org/docket/files/141/15987.pdf). The unambiguous wording of the ICJ, a principle organ of the United Nations, is the primary reference when considering any issue with regard to Kosovo’s statehood and its place in international relations. Kosovo has one of the youngest populations in all of Europe. Kosovo, as a young country, is rapidly bridging the digital divide facing its citizens, institutions and businesses. Today, 76% of Kosovo households have a broadband Internet connection. Our youth are leading the rapid spread of the use of all forms of digital media. We are keen Internet users and adding Kosovo to your menus would serve your website to understand the size of your users in Kosovo. In the same time, your supportive response would help us to overcome a technological barrier that affects Internet users from Kosovo attempting to use services that your company provides. On behalf of myself and the Digital Kosovo initiative, I would like to thank you in advance for taking action on our behalf. Sincerely,

“Thank you for contacting Innovata. Unfortunately, we are not able to include you in our flight schedules database since we are IATA compliant. At this time, Kosovo is not recognized by the International Standards Organization. I am including the IATA coding email address. They me be able to help you obtain your country code.
