Why Attend Grounded 2025

The ONLY Airline Summit Dedicated to Passenger Disruption Management

“As anyone in operations knows, even if we manage to get all our flights on time and disruption-free, issues at another airline can still impact our own operations. That's why it's crucial for more airlines to join Grounded 2025—so we can work together to improve the industry as a whole.”
