As a laboratory for the airport of the future, Nice Côte d’Zur Airport celebrated its first World Air Passenger’s Day on 17 November, with all its partners collaborating to welcome passengers with various festivities and activities staged throughout the airport journey.
“Our customers don’t choose an airport as their destination; they use airports to make their travel dreams come true,” said Franck Goldnadel, Chairman of the Board, Aeroports de la Cote d’Azur.
“That’s why it is important to thank the women and men who place their trust in airports, airlines and all airport stakeholders and expect certain services in return: in addition to safety and a smooth passenger journey, they are looking for an original, surprising experience, a foretaste of travel and adventure. Airports rise to that challenge every day. Devoting one whole day to celebrating passengers is all about underscoring the bond between us and our determination to offer them constantly better quality of service,” he added.
The day saw the airport’s entrances to car parks and terminals marked with staff welcoming passengers in person wearing the badge of the day; a yellow heart on a purple background, with the words ‘World Air Passenger’s Day’. Passengers were then treated to a red carpet walkway into the terminal, goodies, music, live performances, food and beverage tasting sessions in airport stores, gifts, educational games, awareness-raising operations, fast-track queues and more.
