Invitation from the President

In the spirit of continued dedication and resilience, it is my great honor to invite you to the 38th Annual Conference and Exhibition of the International Inflight Food Service Association. This conference promises to be an exciting and educationally stimulating event and is centered around the idea of community, as we meet to “Rendezvous in Montreal.”

Montreal will offer a truly unique experience with its old world charm, French joie de vivre and modern style all its own. The birth place of Cirque de Soleil and home to more than 40 festivals, Montreal is a destination not to miss!

And while you’re in Montreal, you will enjoy many opportunities to share your individual stories in dynamic networking settings, actively participate in educational sessions, learn about cutting-edge food safety standards and mingle with new and old friends at the many special social events IFSA has produced for you… and yes, Fun Night is back!

Please take a minute to review this conference brochure; you’ll find a program filled with educational sessions and networking opportunities specifically designed for a maximum return on your investment.

IFSA strives to plan and produce an annual conference that you won’t want to miss, and this year, we’re in the process of exceeding that goal. Let’s Rendezvous in Montreal!

Larry D. De Shon
President
