Ready for Takeoff - State of Air Travel with Phil Washington

After taking a major hit during the pandemic, where does the air travel industry stand today?

He and Willy discussed recovery for the air travel industry, his plan to accommodate 100 million passengers in the next 5-8 years, innovative capabilities being implemented at DEN, and much more.
