Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
At the outset, we commend you for your sensitivity on earning halal and abstaining from haram. It is this attitude that brings Barakah (blessings) in one’s earnings.
You are working in the It department. Your job does not entail any direct dealings with the selling and serving of alcohol. It does not fall under the prohibition of the Hadith[1] since this is not involvement in the actual impermissible transactions and dealings. Hence working in the IT division of Airline Company is permissible.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
