The Australasian aviation market has been one of the most profitable in the world, and this has attracted the entry of new carriers both domestically and from overseas. However, intensifying competition and soaring fuel prices have impacted airline profits, and many in the industry fear that the aviation industry will enter a downcycle.
 
In these trying times there is an opportunity for the aviation industry to shed excess capacity and undergo consolidation. Come and hear from the key airlines on how to manage risks and tackle challenges on the most pressing issues facing them.
 
On the investor side, pension and superannuation funds are active investors in the growing Australasian aviation market as well as on the international stage. Gain insight into their investing strategies in the current market at Airfinance Journal and Euromoney Seminars’ Inaugural Australasia Airfinance Conference - the forum that brings together the aviation industry’s leading experts.

 

Key issues to be discussed include:
 
• Fuel: High costs and the hedging imperative

• What is the outlook for the Australasian regional aircraft market?
