Nairobi — Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), Nairobi and Moi International Airport (MIA), Mombasa have been awarded by the Airports Council International (ACI) for the second year running for their excellence in customer service.

The two airports won the 2021 Best Airport by Size and Region in the 5 – 15 million passengers per year and Under 2 million passengers per year in Africa categories respectively, in ACI’s Airport Service Quality (ASQ) survey.

The survey which is considered the aviation industry’s most comprehensive passenger service-benchmarking program captures passengers’ experience at all airport passenger contact points at more than 300 airports worldwide.

ACI World Director General, Luis Felipe de Oliveira congratulated Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) for its efforts in improving the passenger experience.

“Your customers have spoken and recognized the successful efforts of your team in providing a superior customer experience during these difficult of times,” Felipe de Oliveira said.

“The basis of the ASQ surveys is continual learning and improvement to reach sustainable customer experience excellence. As the industry recovers, continuing to listen and adapt to travelers will be absolutely crucial to strengthening airports’ competitive advantage, non-aeronautical revenue, and ensuring the sustained recovery of the entire aviation ecosystem,” he added.

While commenting on the awards, Kenya Airports Authority’s Managing Director, Alex Gitari noted that the Authority is leveraging on industry best practices as it seeks to provide a seamless passenger experience at its airports.
