NATA welcomed air charter operators and industry partners to Chicago last week for a successful Air Charter Forum, made possible through the generous support of host Priester Aviation and sponsor AirTera.
The forum featured candid, guided discussion on the issues, challenges, and opportunities shaping today’s air charter environment, including safety, operational efficiencies, the potential of AI, working with regulators, and industry and agency workforce challenges and opportunities.
Participants shared perspectives on key operational and policy priorities, reinforcing the value of bringing operators and industry leaders together to identify practical considerations and help inform NATA’s advocacy and member education efforts.
NATA also appreciates the many speakers and contributors who helped shape the day’s conversations, including former NATA Board Chair Andy Priester; Jeffrey Miller, Executive Director of Chicago Executive Airport; Greg Johnson of Tuvoli; Jiri Marousek of AirTera; NATA Air Charter Committee Co-Chairs Andrew Schmertz of Hopscotch Air and Barry Lambert II of Southern Sky Aviation; committee members; and NATA team members who shared their insight and experience throughout the forum.

Save the date: NATA’s next Air Charter Forum will take place June 4 at NATA headquarters in Washington, DC, in conjunction with NATA’s Day on the Hill. Make your reservations to include this forum in your travel plans. Registration information for the Air Charter Forum will be available soon.
