Welcome
The Airline Economics Aviation 100 Americas Awards, sponsored by elfc, recognise outstanding performance, leadership and innovation across the Americas commercial aviation industry during the 12 months to October 2026.
The awards combine:
- industry peer voting
- supporting submissions
- editorial and judging review
Responses are invited from senior aviation industry professionals across the airline, leasing, banking, legal, MRO, OEM and advisory sectors.
All responses are treated confidentially and used solely for awards analysis purposes.
Voting is restricted to industry participants using corporate email addresses. Airline Economics reserves the right to remove duplicate, coordinated, non-independent or otherwise ineligible responses from the final analysis.
Aviation 100 Awards methodology
Airline Economics monitors voting patterns and reserves the right to exclude coordinated campaigns, duplicate votes, automated responses or responses deemed inconsistent with the spirit of independent industry voting. Excessive voting activity originating from a single organisation may be reviewed and proportionally weighted.
For more information on the awards and the Deals of the Year nomination process, please visit our website.
Winners will be announced at an exclusive gala dinner on 3 November 2026 at Ritz-Carlton Millennia Singapore, held during the renowned Growth Frontiers Singapore conference, and published in Airline Economics Issue 94 (October 2026).
Voting is open until 9 October 2026. Thank you for taking the time to support your industry peers.
