Is the Airline Industry Flying High or In for a Tough Landing?

Airlines have hit their share of turbulence, from supply chain issues and staffing shortages to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and elevated fuel prices. As interest rates rise and some airlines file for bankruptcy, the industry’s carbon emissions efforts are getting off the ground.

Join The Sidley Podcast host and Sidley partner, Sam Gandhi, as he speaks with three of the firm’s thought leaders on the airline industry — Bart Biggers, Michael Burke, and Kevin Lewis. Bart and Kevin are co-leaders of Sidley’s Aviation and Airlines practice, and Michael is a partner in the firm’s Restructuring practice. Together, they discuss the current state of affairs in air travel, emerging trends in the industry, and legal considerations regarding the bankruptcies taking place.
