On April 28, Brandon was heads up participant at an American Airlines Enterprise Council meeting.
Kudos to AA Cargo for including AfA with Brandon, the leading advocate in Washington for air cargo forwarding, who undoubtedly at this gathering offered his view of the general air cargo legislative landscape.
“Nice gathering as American Airlines Enterprise Council meeting held outside Los Angeles this week,” Brandon declared.

“The session drew a strong turnout from leading forwarders and featured updates from American’s Cargo leadership pictured above that also included, Richard Brueland, Customer Care Manager (left).
“A special mention in order for Ronce Almond,” Brandon declared.
“Since his appointment in July 2024, Ronce has taken the lead on the airline’s advocacy efforts.
“Drawing upon his prior role as Senior Counsel to the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee, Ronce provided a clear and timely overview of the current legislative and regulatory landscape in Washington.
“The Airforwarders Association,” Brandon assured, “looks forward to working closely with the AA Cargo team on shared priorities coming out of Capitol Hill.”
A nice touch, participants also assembled bicycles for local children in need, following the meeting.
“All in all, it was a productive and informative gathering in Southern California,” Brandon Fried concluded.
