East Midlands picks up best airport award
06.05.07
East Midlands Airport has been voted 'Best Airport' at the Baltic Air Charter Association (BACA) Awards. Last year the 'Best Airport' award went to Dubai Airport so the standard was extremely high, a spokesman said.
The annual awards event was held recently at Plaisterer's Hall and brought together hundreds of aviation industry representatives. The membership of BACA was asked to vote for the best airport they had dealt with over the last year.
It is the fourth time in two years that East Midlands Airport has been hailed as 'Best UK Airport'. In 2005, it received awards from the TTG British Travel Awards and in 2006, from the Travel Weekly Globe Awards and by Selling Long Haul and Short Breaks magazine.
Managing Director of East Midlands Airport, Penny Coates said: 'This is another great achievement for the airport. It is fantastic to be recognised in this way, especially on a global platform. It's a real testament to the hard work that has been put into making East Midlands Airport an excellent international facility for both passengers and freight - something we are all immensely proud off.'
Chairman of the Baltic Air Charter Association, Markham Jackson said: 'I consider that the award for East Midlands Airport is well deserved. I would like to congratulate the Airport on this further honour'.
