Fiumicino the Safest Airport in the World!
Rome Fiumicino Airport Has Been Awarded the Prestigious 5-star Skytrax
September 12, 2020
The current period is certainly not one of the easiest for the tourism sector. The pandemic, which is still underway, has in fact forced the whole world to review a series of situations, including the protocols for safety.
And in this regard, in Italy we have a considerable record: that of Fiumicino airport. The Roman airport, after having been awarded the Biosafety Trust Certification by Rina and the Airport Health Accreditation by Aci, has conquered another real accolade: the 5 stars of Sytrax for the measures and protocols adopted in this delicate phase that the planet is going through.
Practically, Leonardo Da Vinci is the safest airport in the world, being also the first in the world to receive this prestigious certification.
Specifically, the anti-coronavirus measures have been effectively adopted by Aeroporti di Roma and “the airport continues to provide a positive impression of cleanliness, improving the high standards already recorded in 2019”. Likewise, special appreciation was expressed for the automatic “UV Clean Touch” sanitization of escalators and elevators, as well as for monitoring the body temperature of travelers—measurement that takes place in less than 2 seconds, thanks to the installation of about 100 latest generation thermal scanners.
Finally, Skytrax, which is an international organization for the assessment of airlines and airports around the world, has certified the communication to passengers at the airport as highly functional. This transmission of information that takes place through the installation of a large number of totems and messages on digital monitors, as well as from microphones, is to facilitate all boarding procedures.
Thanks to all this, a number of processes for boarding passengers have been optimized, from accessing the terminal, to the gate—phases that take place quickly and without delays or critical issues. In conclusion, for Skytrax the Fiumicino airport “is taking all necessary measures to provide a clean and safe environment”.
This truly very important recognition obtained by Leonardo Da Vinci is very important for the main Italian airport which, for some years has distinguished itself admirably from many other airports for its effectiveness and organization.
