Welcome aboard delegates to the Airlines for America (A4A) Board of Directors! This committee will be everything but plain and all about planes. Buckle up, because this isn’t your standard red-eye to nowhere – this is a crisis-strapped, turbulence-riddled flight into the heart of one of aviation's darkest eras: the summer of 2020.
A4A is the leading trade association for U.S. airlines, advocating for policies ensuring safety, security, and economic viability. Set in the summer of 2020, this committee operates without hindsight. Your characters don’t know the future, but you must make urgent decisions to stabilize an industry in freefall. Discussions will center on A4A’s five core priorities, now disrupted by the pandemic. How can airline CEOs, lobbyists, and government officials, and representatives work together to balance the implementation of costly safety measures with the maintenance of financial viability during a global pandemic?
