An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any place where people gather. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. You assume all risks, hazards, and dangers arising from or relating in any way to the risk of contracting a communicable disease or illness—including, without limitation, exposure to COVID-19 or any other bacteria, virus, or other pathogen capable of causing a communicable disease or illness, whether that exposure occurs before, during, or after the event, and regardless of how caused or contracted—and you hereby waive any and all claims and potential claims against The Air Carriers Purchasing Conference—relating to such risks, hazards, and dangers.

Indemnity Clause

Registration for the Air Carriers Purchasing Conference is an agreement between the Attendee, the Attendee’s organization (as identified on the registration form), and the Air Carriers Purchasing Conference, Inc. (“ACPC”). Each Attendee warrants that the Attendee is competent to represent and bind his or her organization for purposes of this registration. Upon full payment of the registration fees, and agreement to these terms, ACPC shall permit the undersigned Attendee to attend and participate in the Air Carrier’s Purchasing Conference (“the Conference”). 

The Attendee and his or her organization (together, the “Indemnifying Parties”), jointly and severally, release, indemnify and hold harmless ACPC and its Board of Directors and their respective companies (together, the “Indemnified Parties”), from any and all losses, damages, injuries, liabilities and claims of any nature whatsoever, whether through ACPC’s alleged negligence or otherwise, which directly or indirectly occur during, or result from such person’s attendance at or participation in, the Conference.  The Attendee further understands and agrees that all property right in the material presented, including common law copyright, are expressly reserved to the presenter or speaker or to ACPC.  If another individual participates in the place of a registered attendee per the ACPC transfer policy, the new registrant agrees to this disclaimer and waiver by default of transfer.  This policy also applies to any registered guest attending the ACPC on behalf of a registered attendee.

The Attendee and the Attendee’s organization assume all risk associated with participation in the Conference. For purposes of this Agreement, the Conference includes all events sponsored by the ACPC, including but not limited to the Hospitality Suite, consumption of alcohol, beverages and meals. In the event of any legal action involving this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred.
