AFRAA to organise 52nd AGA virtually on Nov 9

August 17, 2020: The African Airlines Association's (AFRAA) 52nd Annual General Assembly & Summit (AGA) will take place in virtual format from November 9 -10. It was decided considering the developments on Covid-19 pandemic across Africa and the globe at large.

TAAG Angola Airlines and the host stakeholders in the Republic of Angola will be pleased to physically host the AGA in its 53rd sitting in 2021 at a time when the situation will be more conducive for a conventional conference.

A release from the association read, "AFRAA  continues  to  support  the  industry in the  restart  and  journey to  recovery. We remain  united with  all  our members, partners and industry stakeholders during  these unprecedented  times. We  look  forward  to your  participation  at an  exciting  virtual edition of  the AFRAA AGA in November 2020."

Recently, AFRAA has launched an interactive capacity-sharing portal for African airlines as part of initiatives and efforts for the industry restart and recovery from the impacts of Covid-19 pandemic. The portal, which is powered by ACC Aviation Group, gives airlines a platform to share capacity and increases daily utilisation of aircraft.
