California calls As the industry comes together in Long Beach, we preview the first IFSA-APEX Expo since October 2019
T
he International Flight Services Association (IFSA) and the Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX) Expo will return to California later this month for the first in-person show our industry has seen since COVID-19 took hold. “It feels incredible to be hosting the show again,” said IFSA/APEX CEO, Dr Joe Leader. “As we just had the doors of the United States reopen for the first time in over 600 days to over 30 countries, the timing of IFSA-APEX Expo will be incredible." For three days (November 30 – December 2 2021), the Long Beach Convention Centre will open its
doors to suppliers and buyers alike for networking, insightful conference sessions and a chance to preview the new products evolved during the past 20 months. The event is slated to be wellattended. “We're seeing incredible resilience in the number of airlines attending in particular and we're very appreciative to bring our world back together again," Leader added.
Sustainability, safety, service Following feedback from previous attendees, the show has been condensed into three days. The first day will focus on a lively conference
