The AHA lets airports around the world reassure passengers, employees, regulators, and governments that they make the health and safety of passengers their top priority and have implemented measures to control the COVID-19 pandemic.
To be certified by the ACI, airports are assessed on a number of criteria, including cleanliness and disinfection, physical distancing, staff protection, physical layout, passenger communications, and passenger facilities.
Airports that achieve certification take a step closer to opening their doors to international passengers through the "Vaccine Passport" program which will be piloted in Phu Quoc in the coming weeks.
Phu Quoc is the fifth Vietnamese international airport to receive the AHA, after Noi Bai, Tan Son Nhat, Da Nang and Cam Ranh.
