Details

The show now re-locates to Los Angeles (which is gearing up to stage the 2028 Olympics), where it will be hosted by LAWA, and staged for the first time alongside APEX EXPO, to create the largest gathering of air transport executives in North America in 2023 to network, learn, forge new partnerships, collaborate and be inspired on their next moves to transform their organizations’ passenger experience, business performance, innovation, and sustainability strategies.

Our event theme that will permeate every aspect of the show will be “Air Transport 2030” and attendees will have access to a large-scale end-to-end exhibition, multiple conference tracks featuring inspirational speakers from inside and outside of the air transport industry, unique social and networking events, co-creation workshops, innovation tours, TSA and U.S. CBP briefings, Think Tank unveilings, our largest ever startup showcase, and powerful networking tools so that engagement opportunities between participants are unrivalled.
