FTE Global

Widely regarded as “the CES for aviation”, FTE Global has soared to new heights and now calls Los Angeles home, a city preparing to stage the 2028 Olympics. Co-located once more with APEX/IFSA Global EXPO, our flagship FTE Global event forms the largest gathering of air transport executives from around the world in North America in 2024.

This year, we’re proud to present a record-breaking worldwide attendance, creating the networking opportunity of the year. Our partnership with APEX/IFSA ensures you get the best of the airport and inflight realms under one roof. It’s a synergy that promises unparalleled insights and opportunities. Attendees will be able to connect with air transport leaders from across the globe, learn, collaborate, and be inspired to elevate their organization’s passenger experience, business performance, innovation, and sustainability strategies.

FTE Global conferences are renowned for being the best in the business and in 2024 we will focus all our content around the overarching show theme of “Transforming Air Transport”. Once more, our conference stages will be packed with exclusive keynotes and presentations from the likes of Warner Bros. Discovery, Los Angeles World Airports, Air France-KLM, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, Pittsburgh International Airport, Lufthansa, Schiphol Group, Alaska Airlines, British Airways, United and many more.

The FTE Global exhibition, set over three days, is poised to be a standout feature of this year’s event, offering extended hours and seamlessly integrating conference activities right on the exhibition floor. This year, we’re excited to introduce groundbreaking features such as the new Airport Terminal Robotics & Mobility Showcase and the Vehicle Showcase zones, Tech and Innovation Briefings and many more highlighting the latest advancements in aviation technology and innovation. Additionally, we will welcome numerous first-time exhibitors who are eager to unveil their cutting-edge ideas and concepts.

Additionally, the event will feature Tech and Innovation Briefings, Think Tanks, Symposiums, Technical Workshops, CEO interviews, and a plethora of social and networking events, including the much-anticipated FTE Americas Innovate Awards ceremony.
