WASHINGTON, August 5, 2026 — Airlines for America (A4A), the leading trade association for U.S. airlines, is proud to announce that Paige Mucci, Communications Coordinator, has been named as a “Marketer to Watch (Aged 30 and Under)” by Ragan Communications.

Ragan’s Top Women in Marketing Awards honor accomplished women who have distinguished themselves through their work and impact. They utilize their creative ideas to generate meaningful results for their organizations and the communications/marketing profession.

Mucci was specifically recognized for her vision and leadership on A4A’s marketing and advertising initiatives including:

• Expanding the association’s social media reach, including launching A4A’s TikTok account and utilizing influencers
• Running successful advocacy campaigns in states, especially “Protect Our Points, Colorado” which helped support an important veto by that state’s governor
• Managing communications for the Modern Skies Coalition, comprised of more than 50 aviation and aerospace organizations united in the goal of overhauling the nation’s air traffic control system which is still running on 1980s era technology. This effort was critical to the U.S. Department of Transportation securing a $12.5 billion investment that Congress passed and the President signed into law, which is a major step toward making modernization a reality.

“Paige consistently delivers high quality, results-driven work and elevates the A4A communications team to a higher standard,” said Rebecca Spicer, A4A’s SVP of Communications. “She understands complex policy issues quickly and knows how to effectively translate them into valuable communications messages and campaigns. She is a true talent with a very bright future.”

“This year’s honorees represent organizations and agencies across industries, bringing fresh ideas to brand strategy, content, digital experiences, audience engagement, analytics and more,” Ragan said in a press release. “Through ambitious campaigns and inventive approaches, they are strengthening connections, delivering meaningful results and helping their organizations navigate a rapidly changing marketing landscape.”

Mucci will be honored alongside the 2026 Top Women in Marketing Class this October at a luncheon in New York City. To learn more about Ragan’s Top Women in Marketing Awards, click here.
