About this event

Now in its sixth year, this unique one-day summit is hosted by Airlines UK, BAR UK and IATA, in partnership with FlightGlobal. With a new UK Government, there’s a clear opportunity for this parliament to push forward on the investment and implementation path to achieve sustainable aviation growth. This definitive UK aviation event brings together industry-leading speakers with fresh ideas and positive solutions as we debate the competitiveness of aviation and how the sector can continue supporting a growing economy, whilst delivering for passengers and businesses.

Created for senior level attendees, Airlines 2024 is the ‘must attend’ event of the year for all those working in the UK aviation sector – from airlines, airports, OEM investors, government, media or suppliers.

14:25 – 15:05 Panel debate: The Net Zero journey

The aviation industry commitment to Net Zero by 2050 involves multiple pathways and will require radical collaboration both within the sector and with Government. What role will SAF, electric, hydrogen and hybrid technologies each play in the pathway to Net Zero? Do public perceptions match the reality of what is happening now and on achievability of targets through to 2050? What will it take to ensure the UK can deliver sustainable aviation that drives economic growth while meeting the ambitious commitments and remaining competitive?
