Polly Magraw, event director for WTCE commented, “Companies have been working extremely hard over the past few years – despite the constraints of the Covid pandemic – to come up with exciting new products that will add a crucial point of difference to airlines, while simultaneously addressing environmental concerns. We are very much looking forward to finding out more about these ground-breaking launches.”
