The facility comprises 16 control rooms, 112 workstations, and a single work area to allow major airports’ primary stakeholders to manage all operations of the airport.

It has been equipped with advanced technologies that are claimed to ensure operational continuity, even during cybersecurity attacks and other critical issues.

Troncone said: “From today, Fiumicino takes a further step forward in the path towards the airport of the future: the new APOC integrated control centre, equipped with the best technologies, will allow an even more effective and greater resilience of airport operations.
