[UPDATE 23 NOVEMBER 2012] The African Airlines Association (AFRAA) is set to convene its 44th Annual General Assembly slated for the 18th – 20th November 2012, and to be held at the Sandton Convention Centre in South Africa's commercial hub, Johannesburg.
Every year, the AFRAA Assembly brings
over 300 high profile aviation players and stakeholders under one roof,
to review the state of the industry, assess the performance of African
airlines and make decisions to further consolidate the growth of air
transport across Africa and beyond. This is arguably the most
prestigious aviation event in Africa and is a great opportunity to interact with, network and listen to African
aviation leaders' perspectives on the future of one of the world's
fastest growing air transport markets.
