This program is designed to assure travelers that certified airport facilities remain safe and are committed to complying with sanitary protocols to prevent contagions and is valid for 12 months.
“Rosario “Islas Malvinas” International Airport’s (AIR) achievement of being accredited through ACI’s Airport Health Accreditation program demonstrates its commitment to setting globally recognized standards to prioritize the health, safety and hygiene of staff, passengers and the public. Airports are key drivers of global economic prosperity and by taking a consistent approach to recovering from the impacts of COVID-19, Rosario International Airport is setting a great example to the industry.” said Dr. Rafael Echevarne, Director General of ACI-LAC.
“This international certificate reaffirms the quality and commitment with which we work every day so that our passengers and the entire airport community feel safe when flying and staying in our facilities” expressed Eduardo Romagnoli, President of the Board of Directors of Rosario International Airport “Islas Malvinas” (AIR).
