Emerging Issues in Airport Security

102

Although threats and vulnerabilities are everywhere, and can emerge from “insiders” or entities completely external to the aviation industry, the focus should be on leveraging available resources and implementing the most effective mitigation measures. By raising awareness about emerging security concerns in the airport community, this session will assist decision-makers in understanding organizational risks and identifying strategies to improve security outcomes.

Beyond the Canvas: Legal Considerations for Art at Airports

103

Art can be a powerful visual tool to enhance the airport customer experience, create a sense of place, and speak to the communities the airport serves. Airports frequently display art that they acquired or have on loan and sometimes even integrate art into construction projects. What happens when airports need- or want- to relocate or even destroy installations? Art can convey a message, but does the airport want to avoid or create a forum for free expression? What contract language and policies should airports consider using to achieve their goals? The panel will discuss many of the legal- and practical- considerations for a successful airport art program.

Yovannie Rodriguez, Chief Administrative Officer, Greater Orlando Aviation Authority

Lee Kaminetz, Assistant General Counsel, San Diego County Regional Airport Authority

ESG – Responding to Investors and Stakeholders

This session will also include an overview of the work that the ACI-NA cross-committee task group has undertaken on reporting and metrics.

Your Future Workforce is 10-Years-Old

104C

The workforce challenges our industry are experiencing now are in part due to a lack of awareness of aviation career opportunities amongst students.

Achieve the Next Level of Smart Airports - Outcome-Driven Computer Vision Strategy

102

The AI-driven future of travel has arrived. Computer Vision is helping to reshape the transportation industry at every level from streamlining the passenger experience, to improving gate turnaround, to reducing your carbon footprint. As the industry continues to evolve, converging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and federated learning will enable the next generation of prescriptive and adaptive data-driven outcomes benefiting passengers, the industry and sustainability. In this session, we’ll explore how a computer vision infrastructure that is manageable, scalable, and resilient, drives real-time insights and delivers all the outcomes that an airport needs – improving the passenger experience, operational efficiency, safety and security, sustainability, and revenue generation.

Beyond the Runway: Airport Commercial Development

103

Airport properties accommodate different types of tenants and serve many different purposes. What is – and what should be- the FAA’s role in airport development? What is the status of the Draft FAA Policy Regarding Processing Land Use Changes? Will the new FAA Reauthorization Act revise the wording of Section 163 which restricts FAA’s authority over airport land use? What creative approaches can airports consider in lease models while adhering to their grant assurances? This panel of attorneys will discuss the ways in which airports can develop their land while adhering to their legal and regulatory obligations and maintaining the control they need.

Airport Safety Management at a Crossroads

104B

With the rollout of airport safety management system (SMS) requirements in the United States and ongoing efforts to in Canada to “modernize” its airport SMS programs, airport safety was a topic of intensive focus even before high profile safety incidents in the U.S. prompted the FAA’s March 2023 “Safety Summit”. In this session, we’ll explore the next steps U.S. and Canadian airport operators can take on their safety journey, with a focus on SMS, apron safety, safety data analysis, and effective safety promotion.

Making it All Work: Labor and the Law

103

Airport managers know firsthand how much work it takes to keep things going, and how many people it takes to do it.  Employees of airports, contractors, airlines, Federal agencies, law enforcement, and concessionaires are all critical. While airports can regulate some speech and expressive activity in some ways, activity involving unions and organizing may implicate other legal principles. Social media and other forms of personal expression can also raise legal issues for airports as employers. How should airports think through these issues? How can airports contractually protect their operations from labor disruptions?  And what do recent legislative initiatives and court cases tell us about the ability of the airport sponsor to mandate certain wages and benefits for workers? The panel will address these and other legal issues.

Employee Experience Drives the Customer Experience

104C

Looking to improve your airport customer experience?  Try looking at your employee experience.  Airport workers – especially frontline staff – are crucial “value add” brand ambassadors and, given the proper support and focus, can have a positive, measurable impact on the airport’s bottom line.  But measuring, optimizing, and leveraging airport employee satisfaction and engagement is not an easy endeavor.  This session will explore how airports are designing new strategies to examine the entire employee journey and how it impacts the customer experience.

What Airport Lawyers Want their Clients to Know about Airport Revenue Use

103

With some exceptions, U.S. airport sponsors are obligated to spend airport revenue only on the capital and operating expenses of the airport.  But what exactly can and should be included in those categories?  What are some lessons learned from airports who have been through an FAA revenue use audit? Beyond the basics, this session will examine the nuances of interpreting the grant assurances and policies guiding the use of airport revenue. Enjoy this panel discussion as experienced airport professionals analyze situations commonly faced by airport sponsors.

Journey to Net Zero

104A

Both the Canadian and U.S. federal governments have committed the aviation sector to Net Zero by 2050. Airlines have also set a Net Zero goal, in response to community and passenger demands. And ACI-NA member airports also have undertaken a Net Zero by 2050 goal. Getting there is going to require leadership, problem-solving and stakeholder management. Come to this session to hear from the airport leaders who are on varying stages of their Net Zero journey.

Planning for GPS/PNT Disruption

104B

Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) is increasingly used in all aspects of airport operations and communications. Airports, air carriers, federal/state/local stakeholders all rely on accurate PNT information to provide services from snow plowing to flight. The increasing use of Global Positioning Navigation (GPS) as the primary source of PNT information makes these stakeholders vulnerable to adversaries seeking to cause harm by disrupting or manipulating the GPS signal. This session will discuss GPS attributions, detection and roles and responsibilities during a GPS event.

Getting the Memo: Internal Communications and the Workforce of the Future

104C

We have seen a rapid evolution in the way teams communicate and engage with the proliferation of more remote work options and an inter-generational workforce.  With no shortage of communications tools and resources available, the real challenges are communicating with transparency, reaching the right audiences to make problem statements, actions, and goals known, and listening to feedback.  From the c-suite to public relations to human resources, everyone has a role in internal communications.  This session will focus on the best practices and principles of internal communications to align teams, drive effective action, and deliver results.

Legal and Operational Approaches to Maintaining Public Safety at the Airport

103

Safety and security is a primary concern for airports throughout North America. Even with best efforts, violence can tragically erupt, affecting lives and interfering with the air transportation system. How can airports, working with TSA and law enforcement, prevent violence and, if it does occur, stop it in its tracks? What are the legal considerations for searching people? What should airports consider when different parts of their campus are under different gun laws and regulations? How do airports communicate amongst agencies in the midst of emergencies? The panel of airport leaders, security experts, and attorneys will address these and other issues.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Airports – A Work in Progress but Differences Made
