Airlines for America (A4A), the industry airline trade organization, launched a campaign this week for a National Airline Policy – a policy that seeks to lower taxes, relax industry regulations and stabilize fuel prices.
A4A president and CEO Nicholas E. Calio, along with airline CEOs, announced the campaign on Capitol Hill this week and said they would be continuing to brief legislators on the benefits of a comprehensive policy.
The five priorities of the A4A National Airline Policy include:
- Reduced taxes:.
- Reform regulations
- A modernized air traffic system
- A globally competitive industry
- Stabilized energy prices
A4A is also running a series of advertisements at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport during the holiday season. A4A is also seeking initial support by encouraging its network of advocates and airline employees to visit the campaign’s website – NationalAirlinePolicy.com – to sign the petition.
