The Asian Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition (ABACE) will rejoin the business aviation show circuit on February 28 to March 1, 2012 at Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai, China. ABACE had been held from 2004 through 2007, but the 2009 show was canceled due to the economic downturn. As before, ABACE will be hosted by the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and the Asian Business Aviation Association (AsBAA).
ABACE 2012 will be held at the Shanghai Hawker Pacific Business Aviation Center, a new facility that is a joint venture between Shanghai Airport Authority and Hawker Pacific. Exhibitors will display their services and products inside the facility's 4,000-square-meter hangar, while a static display of about 50 aircraft will fill the ramp next to the hangar. Another key feature of the ABACE show will be on-site educational sessions focused on business and regulatory issues in the Asia business aviation marketplace.
