How does Latin America sustain itself as the world’s fastest growing aviation region?

Aviation is a force for change in Latin America, with the industry's rapid growth connecting the continent like never before and bringing traveller, trade and tourism. Yet, the region faces underlying and deep-seated challenges, including limits around infrastructure, policies around taxes and protectionism and the difficulties of building connections to regions with small populations and limited economic development. This panel will take a whole-of-region overview and consider key questions such as:

  • How can Latin American airlines build connectivity with the rest of the world?

  • What does airline consolidation mean for intra-regional and intercontinental connectivity?

  • How do airlines go about building connectivity to smaller regional population centres?

  • What models of airport ownership/operation best support regional infrastructure development?

  • How do regional carriers support liberalisation and mitigate government moves around aviation taxes and other charges?

  • Will the LCC revolution continue at the same pace in Latin America, or is the market starting to see more differentiation and segmentation?

  • What are the regional hot spots for growth within Latin America?
