PR Newswire | January 22, 2024

Trip.com Group, a leading travel service provider, announced today the signing of a new NDC agreement with LATAM Airlines Group.

Moreover, customers can access a broader range of ancillary services and more detailed information by browsing the change and cancellation policy section during checkout, leading to improved Trip.com Group and LATAM Airlines Group's after-sales services. Juan Villanova, Sales Manager of Trip.com for Spain and Latin America, comments: "Trip.com is a cutting-edge online travel company that leads the way in technology. Our commitment is to improve our product offerings to guarantee the highest customer satisfaction. With this tech solution, our passengers will have access to an improved and more competitive selection of flights and products." The agreement will include integrating a shopping engine for ticket sales via some of Trip.com Group's leading brands, offering a cost advantage to both suppliers and customers. Henk Van der Velde, Regional Director for Southern Europe and Latin America for Trip.com Group's flight Department, adds: "We are delighted to collaborate with LATAM Airlines Group in the implementation of an NDC standard, and offer solutions for everyone via a shopping engine, which has yielded excellent results.

“Terror Plot Foiled,” “Fear in the Skies,” “Travelers Resigned to Tougher Security Measures”—business travelers can’t escape today’s headlines and face growing, unprecedented threats. Travel management company Omega World Travel  has partnered with Air Security International to introduce MegaTrak: a new risk management solution for business people on the move. 

“With heightened danger warnings and security concerns, the role of travel agent has evolved into one of protector by providing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week customer assistance, along with local help internationally to ensure global safety,” said Gloria Bohan , President and CEO of Omega World Travel. “Both business and leisure travelers want to continue to travel the world safely, and the added assurance that we can offer by phone, virtually, and on location in 70 countries is one role that we gladly fill. Through the cooperation of ASI, our new travel security solution – MegaTrak – combines the most advanced security content and communications features in one package for comprehensive traveler safety.”

As the Internet and technology leads to new commercial opportunities in a global economy, businesses expand their markets and more people travel, facing unfamiliar places with hidden dangers.

The MegaTrak solution lends peace of mind in a sometimes perilous world. MegaTrak effectively tracks en route corporate travelers in real-time, wherever they are. The solution combines data from multiple reservation systems, produces special reports when significant events occur, and offers customized briefings for hundreds of business destinations. And Omega’s US-staffed emergency service centers cater to MegaTrak users’ needs 24-hours a day, providing valuable information and assistance when it’s needed most.

MegaTrak is powered by ASI, a leading provider of intelligence and security services. ASI unique security solutions support the corporate executive on-the-go and other travelers around the globe.

“Air Security International (ASI) is proud to be associated with Omega World Travel in assisting and meeting the needs of its travelers who travel domestically and internationally, by air, land, and sea,” said Mark Hall , Vice President of Business Development for ASI. “Omega’s travel professionals and ASI’s security professionals have parlayed their expertise, education, and services in ultimately benefiting the traveler before, during, and after a trip.”   

Developed through real-life travel and security scenarios, MegaTrak allows organizations to better manage employees in less time than ever before:

A Taste of Italy: 11 Days

Our tour guides were very knowledgeable. Hotels were adequate, nothing special as were the meals from the hotel. At times, we seemed to be uncertain about what to expect mainly upon arriving in Rome at the Hotel St Martin. There wasn’t any published info or a contact there to refer to. Also didn’t like having to transfer with our luggage from a small bus to the tour bus in Pompeii. The bus wasn’t vacant when we arrived and we had to wait with our luggage for others to come back from their tour. I would have liked more to be included. The tour states Amalfi Coast. When we got to sorrento we were advised that a tour of amalfi coast would be an extra 80 euros pp.

A Taste of Italy: 8 Days Tour

A Taste of Italy: 8 Days

MIRACLE OF ASSISI It all started when my wife noticed she had left her mobilephone in the public restroom near The Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, in the bus which had run more than half hour after we left Assisi. Impossible to return. So, I called my wife's mobile phone from mine, and a man answered, but we could not communicate because he spoke Italian. When I asked our tour guide, Sabrina to replace me, she found the man was a friar, and the mobile phone was kept in the church office. OK, the mobile phone was safe, but how could we get it back? Then, Gigi, the driver of our bus, used the network of bus drivers, and wrote the scinario. Mr.A, the driver of the tour visiting Assisi the next day, would receive mobile phone from the church, and carry it to a sightseeing spot where he could meet Mr.B, the driver on the way back to Rome. Thus, the mobile phone was delivered to the hotel in Rome by Mr.B, before we returned to Rome. Thanks to Sabrina, Gigi and two other drivers - and also the anonymous woman who found the mobile phone in the restroom and brought it to the church -, the mobile phone was successfully relayed and we could fully enjoy the tour without sacrificing any of our itinerary. OTHER IMPRESSIONS •Hotels: Hotel St.Martin in Rome locates near the Termini station and was convenient. Hotels in Florence and Venice were far from the city center but not bad considering the price of this tour. •Meals: almost average. Lunch at Montepulciano was superb. •On the first day, "Rome at sunset tour" is offered. It is a night walking tour which visits several famous spot such as Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps and so on. But I'd like to say, Visit Them In Daylight if you have time. Once again, Thanks to Sabrina and Gigi!

A Taste of Italy: 10 Days Tour

A Taste of Italy: 10 Days

Nicole, the tour guide was very knowledgeable. My constructive criticism would be to not single guests out. It became habitual to one Lebanese couple to the point it made the majority of the 27 of us uncomfortable. They were limited in their understanding of English. They paid the same as the rest of the group and they deserved to be treated the same. There was another single man that it was obvious he annoyed her a great deal as well... Other than that she was really good but those two examples left a sour taste in my mouth. Tour guide in Florence good (forgot his name smaller well dressed gentleman), tour guide in Pisa good (Roberto), tour guide in Venice was extremely patient, knowledgeable nice (forgot his name), tour guide at Vatican City was great (David), tour guide at Pompeii couldn't have been more boring no enthusiasm (obviously forgot her name), tour guide in Capri fantastic (Sasha). Hotels were comfortable. Sorrento looked great from the outside, common areas nice, our room was really dated and furniture a bit beaten up/worn. All breakfasts up to Sorrento were basic with eggs never being cooked well and cold (that being said, you could find something to eat), the lunches and dinners were just okay but not awful (basic and repetitive). That being said there aren't that many and it is tough to cater to everyone, there are so many tour groups coming and going. Drivers were good and the coach buses comfortable. Wifi was not guaranteed on the bus, so just don't be expecting it. Air freshener on the bus from Rome to Sorrento was so strong I could taste it and my nose was raw from it. Excursions were great. Our alone time to shop was adequate, no complaints. Overall its a great trip and a great way to see a lot in a week and a half. I would definitely do it again. I think the price was very reasonable, and priced fairly. You really had nothing to worry about, it's all done for you. You just need to be where you're instructed to be so the group isn't waiting on you! I really recommend it and the best part you meet good people and make friends and lasting memories!

The tour was great and although we saw a lot in such a short time it would have been nice to have time to still shop at the markets in Florence. Overall a great experience.

We were pleasantly surprised to be on a tour of only 6 people. Our driver, Joao Pablo (John), was excellent. He was so knowledgeable and personable and had some great recommendations for us. We all had a great time and will definitely request “John” when we return to Portugal!

Splendours of Sicily

We were happy with the overall tour itself, very knowedgable and helpful tour guide who did everything to ensure we had the best holiday experience. Irene was the best. We were disappointed with the time it took Tour Radar to confirm our first Hotel destination details so we could organise a transfer. Communication on this was rather poor and not helpful being provided so close to tour commencement date when we were already on the road travelling Italy.

Sicilian Secrets Tour

Sicilian Secrets

The trip was well organized. The guide - Placido certainly knew his subjects and was very happy to answer questions. The accomodation was all very good as were the breakfasts. .The group was large and I didn't realise that when I booked. Also you did need to be fit ( I am) but some people found the wakking/steps very difficult

A Taste of Italy: 14 Days Tour

A Taste of Italy: 14 Days

The Tour gave us a great overall view of Italy and helped us decide what specific places we want to return to. Carlos our tour leader did well; the the tour leaders in the specific cities did excellent ( i.e. Florence, Pisa, Rome and Pompeii). More optional tours could have been suggested - Accademia and Uffize museums in Florence, the inside of St. Mark's and Doge's Palace in Venice and the Colosseum/Forum in Rome. Or at least it should have been mentioned that if you want to see any of the above, you have to book your own tour.

The tour was fantastic and the hotel Michaelangelo in Sorrento was amazing. The service and meals were perfect. The only part of the tour that was disappointing was the tour in Naples . Also the initial pick up for our tour from Rome to the bigger tour bus was delayed and for over an hour 1/2 wait . We almost gave up and we would have missed a great tour . Our tour guide to Capri and Sorrento was fabulous. Capri was one of our favorite spots on our vacation.

Reviews of omega tours tours.

The first half of the trip is very well planned as we had a tour director and bus. Stephano and Luigi were absolutely fantastic. They went above and beyond to make sure we all were taken care of. Once we returned back to Rome in the middle of the trip, we got passed around to different drivers, tour leaders, etc. It was a bit disheartening. However, things were well organized and we were able to do everything we were supposed to. Overall, it was nice to have tours of the cities and then free time. The free time in each city was very nice. Hotels were nice. Keep in mind, we are in Europe. Do not expect large rooms with massive bathrooms. All hotels were clean.
If you want to see a lot of Italy in a short amount of time this is the tour for you! Our guides and driver were fantastic. They took all the guess work out of the equation with their guidance on Italian culture and recommendations of good restaurants and safe areas to visit during free time. Be prepared for a lot of walking as much of Italy is best accessed via walking tours. There is beauty around every corner. If walking is difficult for you, be warned that the handicapped accessibility is not near the standard we find in the USA. All of our hotels were great—clean and comfortable. The bus was well appointed and had free WiFi.
It was like speed-dating Italy As far as the “taste” goes - we had much better meals on our own just by randomly walking into restaurants on our own. The free gelato in Rome the first night was nice. The evening cocktail was good in Venice. The Napolitano pizza lunch was good as well as the lunch in wine country. The 2 dinners in the hotels were awful! The dinner at the hotel in Capri- area was excellent! The hotel in Rome & Sorrento we’re very nice. Although I’m Sorrento we’re we’re put in an Amex building and the pool & spa closed at 7pm. All the other hotels were awful.

The Moscow Metro Museum of Art: 10 Must-See Stations

There are few times one can claim having been on the subway all afternoon and loving it, but the Moscow Metro provides just that opportunity.  While many cities boast famous public transport systems—New York’s subway, London’s underground, San Salvador’s chicken buses—few warrant hours of exploration.  Moscow is different: Take one ride on the Metro, and you’ll find out that this network of railways can be so much more than point A to B drudgery.

The Metro began operating in 1935 with just thirteen stations, covering less than seven miles, but it has since grown into the world’s third busiest transit system ( Tokyo is first ), spanning about 200 miles and offering over 180 stops along the way.  The construction of the Metro began under Joseph Stalin’s command, and being one of the USSR’s most ambitious building projects, the iron-fisted leader instructed designers to create a place full of svet (radiance) and svetloe budushchee (a radiant future), a palace for the people and a tribute to the Mother nation.

Consequently, the Metro is among the most memorable attractions in Moscow.  The stations provide a unique collection of public art, comparable to anything the city’s galleries have to offer and providing a sense of the Soviet era, which is absent from the State National History Museum.  Even better, touring the Metro delivers palpable, experiential moments, which many of us don’t get standing in front of painting or a case of coins.

Though tours are available , discovering the Moscow Metro on your own provides a much more comprehensive, truer experience, something much less sterile than following a guide.  What better place is there to see the “real” Moscow than on mass transit: A few hours will expose you to characters and caricatures you’ll be hard-pressed to find dining near the Bolshoi Theater.  You become part of the attraction, hear it in the screech of the train, feel it as hurried commuters brush by: The Metro sucks you beneath the city and churns you into the mix.

With the recommendations of our born-and-bred Muscovite students, my wife Emma and I have just taken a self-guided tour of what some locals consider the top ten stations of the Moscow Metro. What most satisfied me about our Metro tour was the sense of adventure .  I loved following our route on the maps of the wagon walls as we circled the city, plotting out the course to the subsequent stops; having the weird sensation of being underground for nearly four hours; and discovering the next cavern of treasures, playing Indiana Jones for the afternoon, piecing together fragments of Russia’s mysterious history.  It’s the ultimate interactive museum.

Top Ten Stations (In order of appearance)

Kievskaya station.

omega travel and tourism

Kievskaya Station went public in March of 1937, the rails between it and Park Kultury Station being the first to cross the Moscow River.  Kievskaya is full of mosaics depicting aristocratic scenes of Russian life, with great cameo appearances by Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin.  Each work has a Cyrillic title/explanation etched in the marble beneath it; however, if your Russian is rusty, you can just appreciate seeing familiar revolutionary dates like 1905 ( the Russian Revolution ) and 1917 ( the October Revolution ).

Mayakovskaya Station

Mayakovskaya Station ranks in my top three most notable Metro stations. Mayakovskaya just feels right, done Art Deco but no sense of gaudiness or pretention.  The arches are adorned with rounded chrome piping and create feeling of being in a jukebox, but the roof’s expansive mosaics of the sky are the real showstopper.  Subjects cleverly range from looking up at a high jumper, workers atop a building, spires of Orthodox cathedrals, to nimble aircraft humming by, a fleet of prop planes spelling out CCCP in the bluest of skies.

Novoslobodskaya Station

omega travel and tourism

Novoslobodskaya is the Metro’s unique stained glass station.  Each column has its own distinctive panels of colorful glass, most of them with a floral theme, some of them capturing the odd sailor, musician, artist, gardener, or stenographer in action.  The glass is framed in Art Deco metalwork, and there is the lovely aspect of discovering panels in the less frequented haunches of the hall (on the trackside, between the incoming staircases).  Novosblod is, I’ve been told, the favorite amongst out-of-town visitors.

Komsomolskaya Station

Komsomolskaya Station is one of palatial grandeur.  It seems both magnificent and obligatory, like the presidential palace of a colonial city.  The yellow ceiling has leafy, white concrete garland and a series of golden military mosaics accenting the tile mosaics of glorified Russian life.  Switching lines here, the hallway has an Alice-in-Wonderland feel, impossibly long with decorative tile walls, culminating in a very old station left in a remarkable state of disrepair, offering a really tangible glimpse behind the palace walls.

Dostoevskaya Station

omega travel and tourism

Dostoevskaya is a tribute to the late, great hero of Russian literature .  The station at first glance seems bare and unimpressive, a stark marble platform without a whiff of reassembled chips of tile.  However, two columns have eerie stone inlay collages of scenes from Dostoevsky’s work, including The Idiot , The Brothers Karamazov , and Crime and Punishment.   Then, standing at the center of the platform, the marble creates a kaleidoscope of reflections.  At the entrance, there is a large, inlay portrait of the author.

Chkalovskaya Station

Chkalovskaya does space Art Deco style (yet again).  Chrome borders all.  Passageways with curvy overhangs create the illusion of walking through the belly of a chic, new-age spacecraft.  There are two (kos)mosaics, one at each end, with planetary subjects.  Transferring here brings you above ground, where some rather elaborate metalwork is on display.  By name similarity only, I’d expected Komsolskaya Station to deliver some kosmonaut décor; instead, it was Chkalovskaya that took us up to the space station.

Elektrozavodskaya Station

omega travel and tourism

Elektrozavodskaya is full of marble reliefs of workers, men and women, laboring through the different stages of industry.  The superhuman figures are round with muscles, Hollywood fit, and seemingly undeterred by each Herculean task they respectively perform.  The station is chocked with brass, from hammer and sickle light fixtures to beautiful, angular framework up the innards of the columns.  The station’s art pieces are less clever or extravagant than others, but identifying the different stages of industry is entertaining.

Baumanskaya Statio

Baumanskaya Station is the only stop that wasn’t suggested by the students.  Pulling in, the network of statues was just too enticing: Out of half-circle depressions in the platform’s columns, the USSR’s proud and powerful labor force again flaunts its success.  Pilots, blacksmiths, politicians, and artists have all congregated, posing amongst more Art Deco framing.  At the far end, a massive Soviet flag dons the face of Lenin and banners for ’05, ’17, and ‘45.  Standing in front of the flag, you can play with the echoing roof.

Ploshchad Revolutsii Station

omega travel and tourism

Novokuznetskaya Station

Novokuznetskaya Station finishes off this tour, more or less, where it started: beautiful mosaics.  This station recalls the skyward-facing pieces from Mayakovskaya (Station #2), only with a little larger pictures in a more cramped, very trafficked area.  Due to a line of street lamps in the center of the platform, it has the atmosphere of a bustling market.  The more inventive sky scenes include a man on a ladder, women picking fruit, and a tank-dozer being craned in.  The station’s also has a handsome black-and-white stone mural.

Here is a map and a brief description of our route:

Start at (1)Kievskaya on the “ring line” (look for the squares at the bottom of the platform signs to help you navigate—the ring line is #5, brown line) and go north to Belorusskaya, make a quick switch to the Dark Green/#2 line, and go south one stop to (2)Mayakovskaya.  Backtrack to the ring line—Brown/#5—and continue north, getting off at (3)Novosblodskaya and (4)Komsolskaya.  At Komsolskaya Station, transfer to the Red/#1 line, go south for two stops to Chistye Prudy, and get on the Light Green/#10 line going north.  Take a look at (5)Dostoevskaya Station on the northern segment of Light Green/#10 line then change directions and head south to (6)Chkalovskaya, which offers a transfer to the Dark Blue/#3 line, going west, away from the city center.  Have a look (7)Elektroskaya Station before backtracking into the center of Moscow, stopping off at (8)Baumskaya, getting off the Dark Blue/#3 line at (9)Ploschad Revolyutsii.  Change to the Dark Green/#2 line and go south one stop to see (10)Novokuznetskaya Station.

7 Penny Stocks That Could Deliver 1,000% Returns by 2029

T here is no doubt that blue-chip stocks are steady value creators and act as a fortress for the portfolio. However, it’s growth and high-potential penny stocks that can make millionaires.

A general tendency is to look at penny stocks purely as a speculative bet. That’s understandable in specific cases where the rally is driven by factors like short-squeeze. However, a deeper look into the world of penny stocks will reveal names that are fundamentally strong.

Further, selected penny stocks represent business that have immense growth potential in the long term. Of course, there’s many a slip between the cup and the lip. Exposure to quality penny stocks should be limited to 15% of the portfolio considering the high-beta factor.

Having said that, when the target is 10x returns, even 15% allocation is likely to have a significant impact on total portfolio returns. Let’s therefore talk about seven high-potential penny stocks to buy for multibagger returns by 2029.

Cronos (CRON)

Cronos (NASDAQ: CRON ) is a high-potential penny stock that can deliver 10x or 20x returns by 2029. The cannabis sector has ample headroom for growth and regulatory headwinds has been waning.

It’s worth noting that CRON stock has trended higher by almost 35% in the last six months. The rally has been backed by positive business developments. Further, the news of Germany legalizing cannabis has been a catalyst for the rally. Additionally, there is a strong case for reclassification of cannabis as a Schedule III drug in the United States. If this happens in the coming quarters, CRON stock is likely to go ballistic.

From a financial perspective, Cronos reported a strong cash buffer of $862 million as of 2023. This provides flexibility for aggressive growth investments. Cronos has also been pursuing geographic expansion. The Company has presence in Canada and Israel. In the recent past, Cronos has ventured into Australia and Germany in the medicinal cannabis market. As the addressable market expands, growth is likely to accelerate.

Solid Power (SLDP)

In the solid-state batter space, Solid Power (NASDAQ: SLDP ) is an attractive pick. If the Company can commercialize solid-state batteries in the next few years, multibagger returns are on the cards. After a deep correction, SLDP stock seems to have bottomed out and has trended higher by 22% for year-to-date. I expect the uptrend to sustain backed by positive business progress.

The first positive is that Solid Power has the backing of automotive majors that include Ford (NYSE: F ) and BMW (OTCMKTS: BMWYY ). In December 2022, the Company licensed its cell design and technology to BMW for parallel research and development. Additionally, Solid Power has continued to deepen its partnership with SK On . This will enable the Company to make inroads in the Korean market.

From a business development perspective, Solid Power shipped A-1 cells to automotive partners in October 2023 for validation testing. This year, the Company has shifted focus to A-2 sample cells. With a strong cash buffer, I don’t see any financial concerns. Once automotive validation delivers positive outcome, SLDP stock is likely to surge.

Blink Charging (BLNK)

Without a proper EV charging infrastructure, it’s impossible for the industry to achieve the EV adoption target in the coming years. EV charging companies are therefore likely to benefit in the coming decade.

Among emerging players, Blink Charging (NASDAQ: BLNK ) looks promising. In the last 12 months, BLNK stock has plunged by 65%. However, the correction is overdone and I expect a strong reversal.

For 2023, Blink reported revenue growth of 130% on a year-on-year basis to $140.6 million. For the current year, revenue is guided at $170 million. Therefore, there is growth deceleration. However, the good news is that expects full year gross margin of 33%. Further, the Company expects to achieve adjusted EBITDA break-even by the end of 2024.

With ample scope for growth in the United States and Europe, I expect renewed acceleration in top-line. Additionally, EBITDA margin expansion is likely to sustain in the coming years on the back of operating leverage and recurring services revenue.

Standard Lithium (SLI)

Lithium stocks have been depressed in the last few quarters and Standard Lithium (NYSE: SLI ) is no exception. SLI stock has plunged by 65% in the last 12 months mirroring the deep correction in lithium.

However, purely based on the asset potential, I believe that it’s a good time to buy SLI stock. Once lithium reverses, the stock will surge from a deep valuation gap as indicated by the asset net present value.

Currently, Standard Lithium has a market valuation of $218 million. In comparison, the key asset of the company (South West Arkansas) has an after-tax net present value of $4.5 billion. Further, the Lanxess project has an after-tax NPV of $772 million.

Besides the upside in lithium, financing of construction for the South West Arkansas project is a potential game changer. The asset requires a development capex of $1.27 billion. Once financing is secured, SLI stock will skyrocket.

Aker Carbon Capture (AKCCF)

Aker Carbon Capture (OTCMKTS: AKCCF ) has been under-the-radar as the stock trades in the OTC exchange. However, it’s among the high-potential penny stocks that can deliver 10x to 20x returns in the coming years.

As an overview, Aker Carbon is in the business of providing products, technology, and solutions in the field of carbon capture. With global focus on decarbonisation, Aker has positive industry tailwinds beyond the decade. Further, with a proven technology, the Company is well positioned for stellar growth. Aker Carbon has already delivered seven carbon capture units with the technology having 60,000 operating hours.

As of Q4 2023, Aker Carbon reported a strong order backlog of 2.6 billion Norwegian krone. It’s likely that the order backlog will swell significantly in the next few years.

Recently, the Company signed a memorandum of understanding with MAN Energy Solutions in the U.S. The country has a potential market of 200 tons of carbon capture by 2030. Of course, European markets will add to the backlog and Aker is targeting to capture 10 million tonnes CO2 per annum by 2025. This will translate into stellar growth and margin expansion.

Yatra Online (YTRA)

Yatra Online (NASDAQ: YTRA ) stock is a micro-cap and hence carries significantly higher risk. However, YTRA stock is deeply undervalued and can surprise in the next few years. As an overview, Yatra is an online travel company in the business of air ticketing, hotels, holiday packages, and other travel related services. The Company’s business focus is in India, which is a market with big potential.

To put things into perspective, Indian travellers are set to be the fourth largest global spenders by 2030. In terms of value, the spending on travel and tourism is predicted at $410 billion by the end of the decade. Clearly, the opportunity is huge and the best part of growth is due for online travel companies.

Specific to Yatra, the corporate travel business is a differentiating factor among online players. Yatra has 800 corporate customers as clients with an addressable employee base of seven million. At the same time, the Company is increasing focus on the business-to-consumer segment. This is likely to ensure sustainable growth and continued margin expansion.

Archer Aviation (ACHR)

The flying car market is at a nascent growth stage. Early movers are likely to create immense value if the business is backed by innovation and a strong management. To put things into perspective, the flying car market is expected to be worth $9 trillion by 2050.

One company that looks promising is Archer Aviation (NYSE: ACHR ). ACHR stock has been in a correction mode in the last six months and it’s a good opportunity to accumulate for multibagger returns.

Archer has made significant strides in terms of business progress. It’s likely that the Company’s eVTOL aircraft will be commercialized in the United States in 2025. During the same year, the Company is also targeting operations in Dubai. Further, Archer has plans to commence operations in India in 2026. In the next 24 months, I expect announcements related to entry into multiple other countries through local partnerships.

Another important point to note is that Archer expects to complete the construction of its manufacturing facility in 2024. This will support production of 650 aircraft annually. This positions Archer to service the existing order backlog of $3.5 billion. It’s also likely that the backlog will continue to swell in the coming years.
