Air Service Decision Makers to Meet at Annual Routes Americas

Routes Americas, now in its 5th year, is the annual gathering of air service decision makers for all of the Americas, and sales for the event officially opened today. The 2012 event will take place on February 19-21, 2012 and is hosted by Nassau Airport Development Company (NADC).

The Bahamas, which is centrally located within the Americas, is the ideal location for airports, airlines, tourism authorities (CVBs), policy leaders, keynote speakers, and exhibitors to meet, do business, and plan for the future.

Routes Americas attracts key decision makers from a wide variety of airlines. With legacy, low-cost, regional, and charter carriers all in attendance, airlines are represented by senior key decision makers that are responsible for making decisions on both new and existing routes.

Among others airlines such as American Airlines, Copa Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Insel Air, Southwest Airlines, and TAM Linhas Aereas have already confirmed their attendance for the 2012 event proving that this is the event for all of the Americas and is suitable for both international and domestic network planners.

A panel of leading industry experts will take part in moderator-led discussions addressing aviation and route development issues across the Americas region including taxation, airport privatization, cargo trends and the state of the American market.

The forum, which is open to all Routes Americas delegates, promises to be both stimulating and enjoyable, with moderators encouraging debate between the panelists and members of the audience. This is a key element of the event, which should not be missed.
Nassau is the capital and the gateway to the Bahamas connected by bridge to the neighboring Paradise Island, which is the home of the famous Atlantis Resort, which will be the venue for this event.

The development of new roads and highways, a new shipping port and terminal makes Nassau easily accessible - only 180 miles off the coast of southern Florida, a short 3-hour flight from New York City, and less than an hour’s flight from South Florida, this destination offers a mixture of the old and the new for all visitors.
