Reno Airport Hosts Major International Aviation Summit

Reno-Tahoe International Airport will host major airline and aircraft manufacturing executives from around the world at the prestigious Boyd Group International Aviation Forecast Summit Sept. 18-20 in Squaw Valley.

Local media are invited to attend the conference and interview the executives from leading national and international air carriers. The airline executives, including CEOs and CFOs who present at the Summit, are available to the airline industry and local media for rare interview opportunities.

Reno-Tahoe International competed with airports from around the country to host this year’s conference. Bringing more than 30 airline executives and 400 aviation leaders to Reno-Tahoe is an unprecedented opportunity for the airport to showcase our region and attract more air service.

Michael Boyd, President/CEO of Boyd Group International, is a renowned airline industry expert known for his blunt, humorous and often spot-on assessments and predictions for air travel. His annual conference is a respected event each year in the aviation industry. Boyd is also the featured speaker at this week’s Western Industrial Nevada (WIN) breakfast meeting at the Peppermill Resort Friday, June 17 at 7 a.m.

The airport is partnering with the Resort at Squaw Creek and the Village at Squaw Valley to provide conference attendees with a memorable Tahoe/Sierra experience. Members of the tourism community throughout the region are helping sponsor the event.
