Page 26 Conclusion: Possible Conditions to Facilitate Success …………. Page 27 Addendum: Embracing New Technology ..………………………….. Page 28 Concept Introduction: Air passes have been used for over three decades by the airline and travel industries to facilitate travel within regions by offering a block of several one-way flights at a discount compared to buying the same flights separately. They are typically sold to tourists from outside the region planning a multi-stop itinerary. By selling a package of flights, often on several airlines, air passes can make travel within a region easier and more affordable, enabling tourists to visit more countries. While their overall track record is mixed, air passes have succeeded in the past at stimulating tourism in several regions, particularly regions that were suffering from high one-way air fares. In recent years one-way air fares have declined significantly in most regions, limiting the appeal of air passes.

  • Here East Meets West”
    Application for LXXV International Council Meeting Spring 2019 Baku, Azerbaijan “Let’s meet where East meets West” ELSA Azerbaijan is the most eastern and one of the youngest members of ELSA (founded in 2011). We have always been an active member of the network holding 1 international meeting of ELSA (IPM Baku 2015) and holding many local and international events ever since, including the biggest summer law school of the network in 2016, 2 huge Summer ELSA Law Schools (2015 and 2017), many bilateral, multilateral study visits and many more national events. After attending a lot of international ELSA events our team is highly motivated and we really want to take a bigger step in a bigger scope. Organizing the biggest International event of ELSA is a quite hard task, but we believe that we can do it. ELSA Azerbaijan is capable and ready for this challenge. Our goal is to get more into the internationality, and give back to Association which helped us to get where we are in our lives at the moment. Our country is both financially and geographically suitable for organizing ICM. Due to devaluation that happened twice in one year (2015) value of the Azerbaijani manat decreased and according to current currency manat is 2 times cheaper than euro – which means it allows us to organize this ICM in better physical environment and provide our guests with everything’s best, because they deserve it. Our dedication and love for the Association, for the whole ELSA Network inspired and motivated us to take this big step and to host an ICM.
