The AGIFORS 64th Annual Symposium will be hosted by Cayman Airways in the Grand Cayman, October 27-31, 2024!

We are excited to invite you to the paradisiac Cayman Islands this year, with the conference being held at the beautifully set Grand Cayman Marriott Resort, on the coast of the Caribbean Sea!

We are expecting a packed 3.5-day technical program, with presentations on recent advancements in all key areas of the airline industry: operations, maintenance, revenue management, scheduling, crew management, and more - leveraging modern analytical techniques, machine learning and artificial intelligence. Experts come from airlines, air transport associations, universities, industrial research labs, consulting firms, and vendors. 

In addition to the technical program, we are planning a range of social and networking events that will allow you to connect with colleagues: a Welcome reception on Sunday night, Sponsor dinner on Monday, a networking event on Tuesday afternoon, as well as the Gala dinner on Wednesday. You will also have a chance to meet with students participating in the Anna Valicek Award and Ken Wang Scholars Programs who have shown interest in the airline industry through academic work.  Sponsor booths and presentations will provide ample opportunities for interacting one-on-one with participants and showcasing products.
