Event Details

AsBAA is pleased to announce it will host its Virtual Safety Week 2021 on 14-16 December 2021, sponsored by MedAire. Building on its acclaimed Safety Summit, Safety Week is a 3-day event focusing on building awareness and promoting best practices in aviation safety aimed at the Asian business aviation industry. With slightly fewer sessions per day and also slightly shorter duration per session, Safety Week was designed to maximize meaningful engagement while minimizing "Zoom fatigue".


Please register now to save your seat at the AsBAA Virtual Safety Week 2021.


The current agenda features informative sessions by international experts on air safety fundamentals, human factors, accident investigation, safety & security risk assessment, airport and ground hazards, maintenance, SMS, IS-BAO, illegal charters, and more. The agendas and speakers are subject to change.


AsBAA's Virtual Safety Week evolved from the organization's signature "Virtual Safety Summit" and regional "Safety Days" that were successfully held in mainland China, Greater China, Southeast Asia, and virtually over the years. The AsBAA Virtual Safety Week 2021 is made possible by its Main Sponsor, MedAire.


The AsBAA Virtual Safety Week 2021 is free of charge and is catered towards operators, management, aircrew, maintenance technicians, and anyone who operates business or general aviation aircraft. There will be a 5-minute break between each session. While attendees are encouraged to stay for the entire event, they are free to join or leave each session as needed.
