What Makes Our Workshops Different

The Inflight Lab isn’t a trade show. It’s a series of intimate, invitation-only collaborative workshops held in premium venues around the world.

When you partner with us, you’re not buying a booth, you’re joining a genuine conversation with airline decision makers, catering innovators, and industry leaders.

Our June 9-10 Vienna workshop (in collaboration with Austrian Airlines) brings together professionals for two days of hands on, problem solving, networking, and
authentic partnership building.

There are no booths. No sales pitches. No passive audiences. Instead: hands on activities, inflight meal experiences, genuine problem solving, and authentic relationship building between airlines and the companies that want to work with them.

Why Attendees Love The Inflight Lab

Our workshops are built on great food, beautiful venues, genuine team building, and honest conversations about industry challenges. This is where airlines and
suppliers collaborate as equals, sharing experiences, learning from peers, and talking openly about what’s really working and what needs to change.

Don’t just take our word for it

“The Inflight Lab seminar in Melbourne delivered real value, with a strong inflight foodโ€“centric focus and a clear lens on emerging trends and where inflight catering and buyโ€‘onโ€‘board are heading. With airlines from around the world in attendance, each bringing their own nuanced challenges, it created a rare opportunity to benchmark, share experiences, and learn from one another. The session combined deep industry knowledge with practical insight, exploring what’s working today and what will shape the future of inflight food and retail. Nik Loukas curated an engaging, highly relevant program that encapsulated his benchmarking and years of experience that challenged thinking and sparked new perspectives. This kind of industryโ€‘led collaboration is exactly what moves inflight catering and retail forward, and it would be fantastic to see more seminars like this continue.”
