The Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA) and Philippine Airlines (PAL) successfully concluded the Asia Pacific Aviation Safety Seminar (APASS) 2025, which they co-hosted in Manila. Held in September at the Hilton Manila, the two-day event gathered aviation safety leaders, regulators, and industry experts from across the region under the theme “Safety Beyond Borders: Global Partnerships, Local Impact.
“As the nation’s flag carrier, Philippine Airlines has always placed safety at the core of its operations. But as skies grow busier, technologies advance, and global complexities deepen, risks continue to evolve,” PAL President Richard Nuttall said. “Meeting these challenges requires airlines, regulators, suppliers, and the entire aviation ecosystem to work together for a safer future for the industry.”
“We commend AAPA for leading this initiative and are honored to host such an important gathering,” he added.
“Safety remains the cornerstone of aviation. The better we become in any arising risk, the safer we become,” AAPA Director General Subhas Menon said.
APASS 2025 featured a series of breakout sessions, panel discussions, and collaborative exchanges focused on advancing aviation safety practices and fostering a proactive safety culture. Topics included operational risk management, safety data analysis, and innovations in flight safety technologies.
PAL last hosted the APASS in 2010.
