Abstract: Realizing a research on aviation safety management system is not a task that can be easily and succesfully achieved, that is because safety is not something we can see and touch, the real significance of safety is most of the times observed only when incidents and accidents occur. This paper has the purpouse to investigate the benefits of developing and implementing the Safety Management System (SMS) in airlines and establish the impact of SMS on increasing safety performance in airlines, specifically in passengers air transportation. The research and analyzing process aim to follow the way of establishing what are the aviation hazards, reporting incidents, the risk management system and assesing whether the company's safety matters are being achieved and weather quality and safety standards are met. This will be done by using the direct observation methodology and case study of airlines that have already introduced into their procedures and practices the safety management system and airlines that did not, based on data published by IATA (International Air Transport Association) in the period of 2012 and 2019. Latest updates on the statistics were released on April 2019 and comprise events and occurrences of the previous year.
