1:36:10Now PlayingAs the United States prepares for a historic summer—anchored by the FIFA World Cup and the America250 celebrations—the aviation industry stands at a critical crossroads. As demand is projected to hit record highs and amid increased reliance for air cargo shipments, U.S. airlines are navigating geopolitical instability, fluctuating fuel costs and frequent government shutdowns.
While Congress has invested a critical $12B down payment in overhauling the U.S. air traffic control system, and meaningful progress is being made already, the next phase of these critical upgrades remains in the hands of lawmakers.
Join The Hill and Airlines for America for this breakfast policy briefing as we bring together industry leaders, lawmakers and stakeholders to discuss how the aviation sector is evolving to meet this moment. We’ll dive deep into the industry’s modernization efforts, the integration of emerging technologies and the strategic outlook for what is expected to be the busiest air travel season in American history.
