Upcoming Conferences
2010 International Airport Security Conference
Strengthening Aviation Security Partnerships Across the Globe
February 15-17, 2010
Queenstown, New Zealand
The 2010 AAAE/IAAE International Airport Security Conference, hosted by Queenstown International Airport, will be held at the Millennium Hotel in Queenstown, New Zealand, on February 15-17, 2010. The theme of this year's conference is "Strengthening Aviation Security Partnerships Across The Globe."
The complex issues and technologies surrounding aviation security continue to pose challenges as well as opportunities to airport operators, airlines and policymakers alike in every region of the world. This conference will provide an opportunity to examine the security policies and technologies in place today and to discuss how government and industry can work together in partnership to confront future security challenges in a way that increases security and traveler convenience across the globe.
Topics that will be discussed include advancing the next generation of passenger and baggage screening; using and developing aviation security policies and technologies to better anticipate threats; working toward global implementation of security measures; and examining the impact of increased security on the air cargo community and on general aviation airports. Emerging trends that use technology to increase security, as well as improve efficiency and facilitate travel, such as biometric credentials and machine readable travel documents, also will be discussed.
Senior executives from the U.S. and New Zealand governments, airport and airline representatives from across the world, and recognized industry leaders in the global aviation security arena will participate in the program.
