London Luton Airport in the UK has received the Level 1 Customer Experience (CX) Accreditation from Airports Council International (ACI).
At present, eight European airports and 35 global airports have received this award.
The five-level accreditation programme aims to recognise airports that are committed to offering great customer service to travellers.
Each level is structured around management areas and builds on from the level before.
At Level 1, it must be clear from the airport’s external and internal communications that customer experience is a priority.
London Luton Airport demonstrated its commitment to providing enhanced customer service with the creation of a Customer Feedback Board, which provides governance and direction in the delivery of customer experience projects.
