ReplyDeleteThe quality of services and facilities provided to passengers in the airport is giving difference between the airports to have 5 stars. There are 3 best airports in the world, which are HKIA in China, Inchon International Airport in Seoul (South Korea) and Change Airport in Singapore.
HKIA takes 5 stars because is connected to about 160 destinations about 900 daily flights by over 95 airlines. The Sky Pier cross-boundary ferry services connect passengers to international destination through HKIA, in comfort way and without going immigration and customs proceedings in Hong Kong.
As well as, Seoul Incheon international Airport also takes 5 stars. It has 18,000 flights monthly which equal 600 trips daily. They look forward to serve 15 million passengers a year and going to 150 destinations with 70 airlines. Moreover, they have V.I.P services to and from the airport and free offers and also they have taxi service for example, Jumbo taxis, which take 3 to 9 people and 10 places for large travel luggage's.
In addition, Changi Airport has special services and facilities for instance, baby care area suitable for people who travel with their children and this area eases the stress of travelling, left baggage area, it is good for people who take tour at the airport to keep their luggage there., medical services, hotel reservations counter, meeting services, big stores for shopping and special needs centre.
To be 5 stars airport , the airport should provide good levels of staff , facilities and support services such as Hong Kong International airport , Incheon International Airport in Seoul (South Korea) and Indoor Garden in Changi Airport .
ReplyDeletefirstly , the most important standards in an airport to be 5 stars airport ,they should to provide staff with good experience , because of the staff can give the airport good reputation among travelers in terms of how they communicate with them if they can speak in nicely and friendly way and try to help passengers .
Secondly , the facilities which are provide in an airport are important as well .
Such as Hong Kong International airport which won for the fifth year in a row named by Skytrax as the world's best Airport among facilities serving over 40 million passengers .
They need a good terminal for Landside which is accessible for everyone and Air side which is restricted just for passengers .
for example they need parking facilities, drop off area and pick up area which are placed in Land side area .
Also they should provide in Air side area routine maintenance for runway and aircraft. , hangar for aircraft storage , fuel depot and runway .
thirdly , Passengers need some support services while staying in the airport For example the airport should provide an area to relax for passengers who stay long times in an airport such as concourse like duty free shops , restaurants . Also they need kids playing area for passengers travelling with their children name a few .
Overall , Staff , support services and facilities which are the airport provide are the most important standers to be one of the 5 stars airport and I hope our New Doha International Airport to be one of five stars airport .
Thank you all for writing on the blog. Your posts cover the question well. The examples are relevant, perhaps a little too detailed in Rabab's writing ( if you can remember all these numbers, Rabab then it makes sense, otherwise you can always use hundreds of thousands of passengers and millions of tonnes of freight, or more than 100 destinations. This way it makes it easier for you rather than trying to remeber all these numbers).
ReplyDeleteSome excellent ideas in all your writing. I'd like to summarise your ideas here:
1. the ability to accommodate comfortably the substantial number of passengers
2. providing a variety of support services to improve the passenger experience
3. quick and efficient processing ( ticketing, check-in)
4. high level of security so passengers feel safe
5. efficient baggage handling system
6. all the other support services you mentioned in your pots regarding passengers
7. no long waiting times, queues
All this improves the passenger experience and creates a positive image of the airport and builds its reputation.
Post any questions if you have.
Good luck tomorrow,
