During these times, when the number of flights has drastically dropped, every penny counts. Even before the pandemic, the industry was going through a crisis, so airlines fought hard to track down and close every loophole.

We’ve talked a lot about virtual events in the past and how we keep the audience engaged. But when it comes to hybrid audience engagement, you are literally dealing with two different sets of attendees. A hybrid event is the combination of an in-person audience and a virtual audience.
