One minute after takeoff from Juanda International Airport in Surabaya, Indonesia, the first officer (FO) of an Airbus A320 noticed that the captain was unresponsive. The FO of the Citilink Indonesia flight conducted an emergency return to Surabaya, where the captain was pronounced dead. None of the 171 passengers were injured.

Disruptions are becoming more frequent, more interconnected, and harder to predict — from extreme weather and technology outages to geopolitical uncertainty and shifting operational demands across the Asia Pacific region.

So how do organisations maintain safety when the unexpected becomes routine?

At AP-SAS 2026, Session 7 — Building Systemic Resilience for Safe Management of Disruptions — aviation leaders will explore how organisations can strengthen resilience, adapt to disruption, and maintain safe operations in increasingly complex environments.

This panel will examine practical approaches to managing operational uncertainty while preserving safety standards — because resilient systems are not built during disruption, they are built before it.

Panel Moderator:
Capt. Roshan Joshi, Technical Director, Association of Asia Pacific Airlines

Panellists:
Mr. Stephen P. Creamer, President & CEO, Air Traffic Control Association
Mr. Koji Hayashi, Vice President, MRO Japan
Mr. Hiroki Kitabayashi, Deputy Chief Operating Officer, Kansai Airports
