NBAA2006 Exhibits Nearly Sold Out

Few events are as eagerly anticipated by the ANN minions as the annual NBAA BizJet Lovefest... to be conducted this year, again, in our back yard in Orlando, FL.

We're apparently not the only ones to think that way. At eight weeks out, advance Attendee registrations for the NBAA 59th Annual Meeting & Convention (NBAA2006) – to be held October 17 through 19 in Orlando, FL – are running 18 percent higher than the total for the same period last year.

As of press time, 1,010 Exhibiting Companies have registered and 5,127 10-foot by 10-foot indoor booth spaces have been sold for the event, positioning this show to be NBAA's largest ever space-wise. The indoor booths will occupy nearly one million square feet of space in the North/South exhibit hall of the Orange County Convention Center.

Ten fixed-wing aircraft will be displayed inside the Convention Center, and more than 100 other business aircraft will be showcased at the Static Display at Orlando Executive Airport (ORL). Exhibit space is nearly sold out; limited indoor and outdoor space is still available.
