Aeroporti Di Roma First to Complete Airport Health Measures Audit Programme

  • Rome Fiumicino and Rome Ciampino airports pass on-site audit of health measures

Airports Council International (ACI) World and ACI EUROPE have today congratulated Rome Fiumicino and Rome Ciampino airports for being the first in the world to successfully complete the Airport Health Measures Audit Programme.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to devastate passenger traffic at airports around the world. To support the airport industry recovery, a commitment to the health and welfare of travellers, staff and the public is key. The Airport Health Measures Audit Programme – developed in partnership with Bureau Veritas – supports airports by addressing their specific risks and by reassuring passengers through an on-site audit.

ACI World Director General, Luis Felipe de Oliveira, said:

We congratulate Rome Fiumicino and Rome Ciampino airports for successfully completing the Airport Health Measures Audit Programme and demonstrating that they are committed to ensuring the health and safety of passengers and staff. These airports have set a strong example and we will continue to work with airports around the world to support recovery so the sustainable social and economic benefits of aviation can be delivered to the communities we serve. Partnerships, like the one with Bureau Veritas which has benefitted Aeroporti di Roma, will support the aviation industry and help to push it forward during the recovery process and beyond.

Aeroporti di Roma’s Fiumicino and Ciampino airports have successfully completed the audit and can display the SafeGuardTM label, demonstrating their compliance with a harmonized set of measures, aligned with the recommendations of national and international authorities.

CEO Aeroporti di Roma, Mr Marco Troncone, said:

This new result reaffirms our commitment to safe operations, which is a priority for us. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis, we have implemented a series of measures to provide passengers and employees with the highest health and hygiene standards, seeking cutting-edge solutions that combine safety and comfort. It is with this spirit that we will relentlessly strive to further improve our performance on safety and quality, which are the ideal grounds to pose innovative safe travel protocols and to support traffic recovery.

Throughout this crippling pandemic our colleagues at Aeroporti di Roma have blazed a trail in innovative solutions focussed on a safe and confident restart towards normality.
