IATA Day
Meet the Airlines - IATA, together with key representatives of a number of its major airline members, will be discussing the challenges we are facing together as we implement many of the IATA programmes that have been outlined at previous PTE conferences. The airline speakers, together with representatives from the airports where they are working on these initiatives, will talk about how they perceive the implementation process, both the opportunities and the challenges.
Synopsis: Ensuring the successful development of major investments in airport infrastructure involves developing facilities that meet airline user needs and are functional and cost effective. With a focus on the development of a third runway in Hong Kong, this presentation discusses the benefits of finding common ground among stakeholders as a critical element to developing much-needed air transport infrastructure.
