Qantas Airways joins Aapa
Qantas Airways, the world’s oldest continuously operating airline, has joined the Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (Aapa), a trade association for international airlines based in the Asia-Pacific region.
Aapa director general Subhas Menon said he’s “very pleased and honoured to welcome Qantas – a leading Australian airline with a long heritage – as a member of Aapa. It will strengthen the association’s voice in international aviation policy discussions and reinforce effective regional collaboration on key aviation tenets, namely safety, sustainability and seamless air travel.”
Cam Wallace, CEO of international and freight activities at Qantas, added that “Qantas looks forward to working with members of Aapa, as the industry embraces opportunities to meet the evolving needs of customers in a dynamic market, while at the same time confronting challenges such as climate change and supply chain disruption.” (cj)
