  2:45 PM   Anatomy of an Airline Liquidation: From Spirit Airlines Chapter 22 to Wind-down

                    What went wrong at the micro, macro and geopolitical level? Was any of it preventable? More importantly, what

                    comes next: from asset values and lessor/creditor protections to the future of the ultra-low-cost business model

                    and the role of a government rescue. Those who advised, lent to, leased to, and closely watched debate the lessons

                    for the industry.

                    When oil and interest rates rise, aviation feels the squeeze. But would falling prices and lower rates necessarily be
                    good news? From inflation and growth to fuel hedging and financing strategies, we explore the risks, opportunities
                    and trade-offs ahead.
