Climate, with our eyes fixated on the environment and sustainability. Dynamism, for the restart of the aviation sector, after an unprecedented crisis.”* Referring to SKY express, she stressed that the airline, throughout the period of the crisis "reinvented itself". “As a business entity, in terms of flight operation and fleet modernization, it has adopted a sustainable development model. It has also digitalized its services, giving greater flexibility to customers, with the result being that today, the company is constantly increasing its market share in the markets where it operates“. The content of the speeches focused on the critical issues that affect the industry as a whole, but also possible ways of recovery in the current circumstances. Among the sustainable development, investments, innovation, infrastructure and new approaches, the speakers reviewed the situation and laid out their own strategic proposals for the future.
