Our
friend and air cargo great Jim Erickson (Amerijet) tells us The
JFK Air Cargo Association and The JFK Cargo Sales Manager's Club
Annual Holiday Luncheon is on for Tuesday, December 16 from 11:30
am–3:00 pm at Russo’s On The Bay, just off the main
runways of JFK International Airport in Howard Beach, New York.
This great networking event
in a very friendly venue affords industry professionals some quiet
moments to come together and celebrate the holiday season with
the spirit of giving!
Attendees are required to
bring one (unwrapped) toy, which will be donated to the U.S. Marine
Corps “Toys for Tots” charity.
Attendees are also asked to
bring a small gift for the raffles so that every attendee has
the opportunity to go home with a prize (office giveaways, or
whatever is affordable).
“Due to limited seating
and the importance of an accurate head count for our venue, this
year’s holiday gathering will only be by means of online
credit card or check prepayment no later than December 12, 2014,”
Jim said.
Checks ($75, no walk ups)
should be mailed to P.O. Box 300887, JFK International Airport,
Jamaica, NY 11430-0887 and made payable to JFK Air Cargo Association.

It’s also worth mentioning
that the always-important Air Cargo Expo will also be held at
Russo’s and the date for 2015 is March 25th.
We think that this event is
among the best one-day gatherings on the planet.
In the key cargo gateway for
the world’s greatest city, JFK Air Cargo Day will celebrate
its sweet 16 next year. For anybody in the business, it’s
an air cargo must to attend.
