CAPA Airline Leader Summit Australia Pacific on July 31-August 01, 2025 in Sydney, Australia

CAPA’s home event, the CAPA Airline Leader Summit Australia Pacific 2025 gathers hundreds of industry leaders and decision makers from across the Asia Pacific and beyond to consider the most significant trends and opportunities of aviation events.

While there is still ground still to be covered with the return of international aviation in the Australia Pacific, the region is now putting the final pieces in place for a full recovery of aviation in 2025. Beyond that, the growth outlook is optimistic. However, powerful macroeconomic and geopolitical forces are influencing this outlook and are throwing up questions about the shape of the region in the future.

Featuring a blend of engaging presentations, panel discussions and audience-led Q&A sessions – not to mention CAPA’s renowned industry knowledge and market analysis – this is a major regional aviation event.

Previous events have featured strong C-level representation from airline, airports and throughout the travel supply chain. The 2025 edition is to be held in Cairns, Australia across 31 July - 1 Aug 2025.

Cairns is the gateway to the only place on the planet where two UNESCO World Heritage Areas listed for their natural values sit side by side: the Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics, which includes the Daintree rainforest and is also home to the largest number of eco-certified operators in Australia.

Cairns is the heart of Tropical North Queensland, a vibrant city that blends a laid-back tropical sensibility with a buzzing multicultural lifestyle. From the utterly relaxing to the downright breathtaking, It offers diverse activity options for delegates to mix business with pleasure. Over 600 tours depart daily for visits to the Great Barrier Reef, tropical rainforest, palm fringed tropical islands and the alluring outback, all offering outstanding opportunities for lasting memories. Best part, Cairns Airport is only 7km away from the Cairns City CBD.
