The Corporate Committee will discuss considerations in the post-COVID-19 shutdown world. Vaccinated business travelers who want to Fly Away (Lenny Kravitz) will have to evaluate business travel. Companies, executives, and those who seek to grow their business will have to evaluate the low percentage threat of COVID against the benefits of personal interactions and networking. The question will be: Should I stay, or should I go? (The Clash). Will profitable business travel resume to pre-COVID levels? How can suppliers, air carriers (air cargo, commercial, and general aviation), and investors in the industry, and its suppliers, adapt to the post-COVID era?
