Routes Asia 2017

The route development forum for Asia

Okinawa, Japan
19 – 21 March 2017

Event Programme

Routes Asia opens on Sunday 19th March with the Strategy Summit which brings together leading industry experts to debate air service and route development issues in a series of moderator led panel discussions. 

The core of the Routes events have always been the scheduled face-to face meetings, which take place throughout the event, presenting your organisation with the opportunity to meet and discuss both new market opportunities and existing services.

Route Exchange Briefings are delivered by senior network planners. These briefings provide delegates with an opportunity to gain an insight into their target & current airline partners’ business.

Alongside these elements there are various informal networking opportunities which can take place on exhibitor stands, alongside hosted lunches, a Welcome Reception and the Networking Evening.
