Following the success of last year’s inaugural airline conference at World Travel Market, the premier event for the global and tourism industry has again joined forces with Airline Business to run a two day conference entitled ‘The Future of Air Travel: Transformation’.



Taking place at World Travel Market on Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 November at ExCeL, Docklands, the conference, in partnership with leading technology supplier Amadeus, sees leading players from the sector debating the future of air transport in a highly competitive sector.



“This conference takes place at a time of major transformation for the airline sector”, says Kevin O’Toole, editor of Airline Business. “As we come to the end of 2004 it is an appropriate time to bring together airline presidents to discuss the key issues of the day. How are mainline carriers responding to the challenges of their low cost rivals? Will web sales continue to put pressure on traditional distribution channels? With changing consumer patterns, the advent of low cost competitors and internet booking channels what is the future of leisure travel in a low cost world?”



Fiona Jeffery, World Travel Market Group Exhibition Director comments: “This conference continues to highlight the importance World Travel Market places on the airline industry. It offers a rare opportunity for all those involved in the travel and tourism industry to hear from those in the know how future trends may affect their businesses. If last year’s conference is anything to go by it looks set to be one of the highlights of this year’s event.
