IFSA has a long history of representing its member base by government affairs engagement and advocacy. This is executed through the Government Affairs & Education Committee (GAEC), EU Task Force, IFSA leadership, and expertise in Washington D.C. and Brussels.

An IFSA strategic objective is to “Positively Influence Regulations to Best Serve the Industry & Passengers In-flight”. Strategies set by the Board of Directors to achieve this goal are:

• Proactively address pending and proposed legislation
• Develop a compliance roadmap for regulatory issues for utilization by regulatory agencies and relevant stakeholders
• Establish a cadence with industry bodies and key stakeholders to address industry regulatory concerns

All members are invited to be part of advocacy efforts through committee activity. For more information, please contact:
