Philadelphia International Airport (PHL)

An unforgettable evening for an even greater cause! This past weekend, our Department of Aviation team attended The Philadelphia UNCF Mayor’s Masked Ball, a premier event dedicated to expanding access to higher education for minority students. At PHL, we know that opportunity begins with access—whether it’s through travel or education. Investing in the next generation isn’t just about aviation; it’s about empowering future leaders, innovators, and changemakers. We’re proud to support UNCF’s mission and help open doors to brighter futures. #UNCF #PHLAirport

Class was in session for the next generation of aviation leaders on Saturday, March 8. Department of Aviation leaders joined industry experts at the Air Transportation Forum 2025 hosted by the Aviation Insights Caucus at Harvard University to participate in several sessions on the program: Kate Sullivan, Chief Revenue Officer participated in panel on the Economic Implications of Route Planning with Motohisa Abe, Japan Airlines, John Heimlich, Airlines for America and Jennifer Thibodeau, Cargo Airline Association CEO Atif Saeed, A.A.E., IAP led a breakout session on the Economic Impact of Airports on Local Communities.

We’re taking the State of the Airport on the road and meeting with many of our regional Chambers of Commerce and business groups. CEO Atif Saeed, A.A.E., IAP recently met with the Central Bucks Chamber of Commerce and shared how Philadelphia International Airport and Northeast International Airports have a large economic impact on the 11-county surrounding region including more than $594 million and 3,220 jobs in Bucks County.?

We had the pleasure of welcoming 35 students from Mastbaum High School for an immersive trades tour at PHL, a key part of our Youth Programs designed to introduce students to career opportunities in skilled trades. Through a facility maintenance tour led by our VP of Maintenance Facility, Milton Robinson, students gained firsthand insight into daily operations and engaged in a Q&A session with PHL apprentices for an inside perspective on the job. A special thank you to our Community Relations team, Director of Workforce Development, Chevelle E. Harrison, MBA,CCA, and Rebecca Serrano from Human Resources for their dedication to inspiring and educating the next generation of skilled professionals.
