Every year Airline Economics recognises the best and brightest young talent in the aviation finance and leasing community with its list of the foremost 40 individuals aged under 40 years of age.

Nominations for the Airline Economics 40 under 40 Class of 2024 will be open in March 2024.

Nomination guidelines:

All nominations must be submitted using this digital form and must be accompanied by a high resolution photo  (300dpi), up-to-date biography/resume, and at least one endorsement from an aviation industry executive.

PR companies are welcome to submit nominations but they must also provide endorsements from industry executives. Self-nominations – i.e. individuals who put their own name forward for consideration – are not accepted.

Nominees who have appeared in previous lists are allowed to appear again but their inclusion will be based on the strength of their achievements over the past year.

All nominees must be under 40 years of age 1 July 2024.

For the past seven years, Airline Economics has awarded the Future Leader award to the person with the most impressive comments from clients.

Only candidates that have been shortlisted will be contacted. The decision of the Airline Economics’ team is final.

Any information provided should be suitable for publication unless specifically and clearly indicated.

Any questions please contact Victoria Tozer-Pennington: victoria@aviationnews-online.com.

The opening date for 40 under 40 2024 nominations is 1 March 2024, and the deadline for submissions is 1 June 2024.

The final list will be published in the September issue of Airline Economics magazine. Winners will celebrate with their colleagues and clients at the gala dinner held in London – details to be confirmed for 2024.
