Costa Blanca Airport In Spain Welcomes New Look Tourist Information Desk

ALICANTE-ELCHE airport has once again been recognised as the best airport in Europe that serves 15 to 25 million passengers.

The prestigious award for 2023 is given by the Airports Council International (ACI) and it means that the airport has come top on four occasions in the last five years.

It will be presented in late September at the ACI summit and exhibition in Atlanta, Georgia.

The award recognises excellence in service and the range of facilities and is given out by studying survey feedback from passengers using the Costa Blanca facility which had a record number of travellers last year.

People are asked about their experience in various categories including access, facilities, the friendliness of the staff, security and waiting times at the security control.

Alicante-Elche airport manager, Laura Navarro, said: “This is a recognition of our efforts to put the passenger at the centre of our what we do, adapting our facilities and services to the needs and different demands of people who pass through the terminal.”

“We have implemented and will continue to introduce numerous measures to have a more inclusive airport to make it more appealing to everybody who uses us,” she added.
