Great turnout at our AZ ASTA Chapter event at Phoenix Sky Harbor with Phoenix Sister City, Ennis, Ireland (County Clare)! Hope educated us on ASTAPAC, we heard from Sky Harbor about our many non-stop routes and what goes in to establishing those routes. Followed by 3 wonderful representatives from Ennis Ireland! We completed our day with a Sky Train tour to the Rental Car Center and the airport museum artwork. What a great day!
