The Aircraft Electronics Association has moved its 64th annual AEA International Convention & Trade Show to June 22-25, 2021.
Originally slated to take off March 15, 2021, the convention will still be held at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, Texas.
“The health and well-being of attendees and exhibitors is our top priority,” said AEA President and CEO Mike Adamson. “In consultation with hotel and health officials in Dallas, we have decided to move the event dates to allow more time for COVID-19 vaccinations and for the possibility of fewer travel restrictions. We will continue to work with our hotel partner to ensure that we can meet safely by following established protocols along with guidance from the CDC and local government.”
All registrations and exhibitor contracts will be automatically moved to the new dates, and no further action is required, AEA officials noted.
Attendees and exhibitors who made reservations at the Hilton Anatole in the AEA room block for mid-March should note that the hotel will close those reservations and refund deposits to the credit card used to make the reservation. This hotel policy is designed to help ensure the correct arrival and departure dates are secured for all attendees in June.
For those avionics professionals interested in attending the AEA Convention in June and have not yet registered, the deadline for early-bird registrations has been extended from Dec. 31, 2020, until March 31, 2021. The early-bird discounted price of $675 (AEA member rate) for a full convention attendee registration offers a $180 per person savings off the on-site registration fee.
