Award for Manchester Airport
25.06.08
Manchester Airport has received the prestigious Best Airport Award 2008 by Airports Council International Europe. The airport was named as the winner in the 10-25 million passenger category, and was the only UK airport to receive an award.
The judges praised Manchester Airport for ‘its simple, innovative approach to attracting airlines’ and its commitment to the environment following the decision to make the airport carbon neutral by 2015. Also praised were the airport's community relations programme and its sponsorship of the arts.
Manchester Airport's Managing Director Andrew Cornish said: ‘These are challenging times in the aviation industry and we know that there are some excellent airports in Europe, so to win this prestigious award is great news.'
‘Manchester Airport puts customers first and that includes both airlines and our passengers. We are committed to making life as easy and hassle free as possible for people when they travel through the airport.
‘We're also committed to the community, the environment and we're a major sponsor of the arts in the region. We firmly believe that our approach is the right way to run an airport of the future and we're delighted that the efforts of everyone here have been recognised.’
