Exclamation Airport Managment Positions

Hi, I will be graduating with a Business Managment degree and Marketing with a Bachelors degree. What is the best way to start out and work your way up to becoming managment within an airline?

I thought we had been through this before. You paint the noses of your model aircraft brown and pass them out to airline folks in high places.

What kind of graduates are we churning out in this country?

One that evidently doesn't know the difference between airline and airport management. And brown nosing is right, I brown nosed my way to where I have a contact who has contacts with airports throughout every state in the country. As the old saying goes it's not what you know it's who you know.

The most important thing in aviation is experience. I have studied Aviation Logistics and it is a very small help, but experience is oddly enoughmore important.

I always thought the saying was "It's not who you know, it's who you blow."

Ok Northwest, you asked for some advise and you got it.

1) Quality education as per Northwest.
2) Brown nosing as per fazeman.
3) Networking as per JB.
4) Being a real go getter as per JB.
5) Gaining experience as per Don Clipper Spirit.
6) Avoid taking the wrong turn to Albuquerque as per gospodin.

Best wishes and let us know how you do.
