The place to be for networking, here buyers and airline decision-makers come together from around the world to view the latest products in seating, galley equipment, lighting, soft furnishings, leather and textiles. Last year’s event saw a dramatic increase in the number of airlines and exhibiting companies attending and 30% of visitors were senior personnel (President, Vice President Director & CEO) in addition to key decision makers such as those in procurement and buying teams.
The 2013 event will aim to build on this with over 100 exhibitors set to showcase their products and
over 1700 aircraft interior personnel expected to attend (representing over 60 airlines).
New this year will be an exhibition preview and industry networking party to be held on Tuesday October 1 in the Washington State Convention Center from 17:00 - 20:00. The exhibition will open for previewing immediately after the Seating & IFE Integration Symposium.
Seating & IFE Integration Symposium
This one-day symposium will run on October 1, bringing together experts from airlines, airframers, OEMs, suppliers and design organisations with key responsibility for the
two major areas of cabin investment – the seat and the inflight entertainment & connectivity systems.
