EXPO Social: Day Two and Three Recap
Share
Day two and three of the EXPO were a whirlwind. Our vendors and airlines hit the floor to exhibit and explore the latest in airline passenger experience. Participants were treated to a culinary competition from IFSA, a free outdoor concert and had access to copious amounts of spirits and cheese!
Vendors we’re excited to finally showcase their latest innovations
