ABERDEEN International Airport is the running to be crowned one of Europe’s best airports later this month.
Along with Torino and Cork airports AIA has been shortlisted in the Best Airport Award under 5 million passengers category at the ACI Europe Awards.
Winners will be announced during the ceremony which will take place virtually, as part of the ACI EUROPE Annual Assembly & Congress virtual event next month.
Aberdeen International Airport has also been nominated for Business of the Year at the Northern Star Business Awards (NSBA).
Roger Hunt, Aberdeen International Airport interim managing director, said: “We are delighted to be recognised as a finalist in this coveted award celebrating Europe’s top airports.
“We are up against some great airports in the under 5 million passenger category later this year.
“We are also pleased to have been recognised locally by the Northern Star Business Awards and the work done throughout last year and this year at AIA.
“It is great to see the hard work of the team at AIA and our partners has been recognised for the way in which we have continued to serve the North East of Scotland throughout the pandemic, including during a very difficult period of lockdown.”
The shortlisting for ACI Europe and NSBA follows the completion of the impressive £20 million terminal transformation project which was the largest development in the airport’s history.
It has led to the terminal growing its footprint by over 50% with many of its facilities significantly improved.
