AA's sustainability shines through

For its continuous commitment to operate a sustainable airport, the Airport Authority (AA) recently received the Hong Kong Sustainability Award 2018/19 and the Special Recognition for Innovation from the Hong Kong Management Association (HKMA).

The award recognises organisations that have demonstrated excellence in its sustainability efforts. Demonstrating the breadth with which sustainability is embedded into the AA's management of HKIA, the submission highlighted a number of airport-wide initiatives that help to strengthen the overall resilience of HKIA as a sustained driver of Hong Kong's development.

These initiatives include the Airport Preschool, EXTRA MILE project, Ground Services Equipment (GSE) Pooling Scheme, HKIA Carbon Reduction Programme and achieving the International Air Transport Association's CEIV Pharma Certification.
