Will Be Held Sometime In The 4th Quarter Of The Year
The COVID-19 pandemic has truly ushered in some aberrant and challenging times. In view of these developments, EASA has postponed the SAFE 360° conference until the 4th Quarter (Q4) of 2020. The new date for the conference will be announced in the coming weeks, at a time when it has become easier to plan such an event.
In direct response to this crisis, the SAFE 360° (2020) agenda will be adjusted to focus on the impact of COVID-19 on the aviation industry from a safety perspective. Discussions will range from the impact of reduced operations to the management of a safe return to operations. The precise agenda will be tailored to address the emerging industry needs as we all learn more about the impact of the pandemic. This conference offers a perfect platform for the exchange and consolidation of knowledge and know-how as the aviation industry in each country, and globally, comes back from an unprecedented level of disruption and strives towards “OPS Normal”.
Furthermore, EASA is keenly aware of the immense repercussions of COVID-19 on the aviation industry as a whole, especially in financial terms. Hence, as a gesture of solidarity with the industry, we have decided to waive the conference fees for SAFE 360° (2020).
EASA said in a news release that the conference was almost booked to capacity in February 2020. For participants who had already registered for the April dates, EASA will refund the conference fee in full. Registration for the postponed conference will be opened when the new date and agenda has been announced. All participants who were registered for the April conference will be guaranteed a seat at the postponed conference, provided they re-register in the announced timeframe.
