WHY SHOULD I ATTEND THIS SPECIAL DIGITAL RETAILING MASTERCLASS?

Are you an airline ecommerce professional? Do you want to see the latest ancillary revenue trends? Do you want to increase your digital knowledge by learning from the likes of Google and Skyscanner?

If you answered any of these questions with yes, then this masterclass is definitely the right choice for you.

Finally, we know your time is precious. Usually conferences last three days and you’re lucky if you find three talks you remember. We promise that with this masterclass, you'll get that in just one day and we'll still have time to have some fun at the end!

HOW IS THIS MASTERCLASS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER AIRLINE EVENTS?

You’ve probably been at a conference where most of the people there were airline vendors, not actual airline people, right?

Or maybe most of the sessions were sponsored vendor presentations showing you how their latest solution will solve all of your problems.

Well, you won’t see any of that at this masterclass event. We have only one exclusive sponsor, and they will show you how to do really cool stuff with personalization. Not only do they do this for airlines, they do it for retailing giants like McDonalds, L'Oréal and Samsung.

All other sessions will be done by either independent digital experts or real airline pros. And best of all, you'll be able to meet and talk to your peers who face the same digital challenges you do!
