AEA rolls out red carpet in Reno

By Janice Wood · December 13, 2010 ·

The Aircraft Electronics Association is rolling out the red carpet for attendees of its 54th annual AEA International Convention & Trade Show in March at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, Nev., with lower hotel room rates; a $175 discount for early bird convention registration; and by giving attendees and exhibitors the weekend off.

AEA is changing the format for this year’s show, which will take place from Tuesday to Friday, March 22-25, 2011. Typically, the AEA show runs from Wednesday to Saturday.

AEA officials also recently announced there now is a special lower room rate at the Grand Sierra Resort for convention attendees. The special rates are $79 per night for a guest room or $99 for a Summit suite-style room. All meetings, workshops, trade show and social functions will take place at the Grand Sierra Resort.

In addition to room discounts, the AEA is offering an early bird convention registration special. Members who register for the AEA convention before Dec. 31, 2010, will save $175 compared to a full on-site registration. The cost for a full registration before Dec. 31 is $500. After Dec. 31, the cost for a full registration is $560. A full registration on-site is $675.

To register online: AEA.net. For more information: 816-347-8400.
