SKYTRAX TO HOLD LIVE WORLD AIRPORT AWARDS CEREMONY IN 2010

The inaugural live World Airport Awards™ ceremony will be held at Passenger Terminal EXP 2010 event in Brussels, Belgium on 23rd March 2010.

SKYTRAX is delighted to announce that it's inaugural live World Airport Awards™ ceremony will be hosted at Passenger Terminal EXP 2010 event in Brussels, Belgium on 23 March.

The World Airport Awards™ are regarded as the most prestigious for recognition of product and service quality across the world's airport industry. Widely respected as the quality benchmark for the airport industry, the Awards represent the opinions of more than 8.6 million passengers from over 95 nationalities around the world who took part in the 10 month Skytrax survey of 196 airports. Assessing more than 35 elements of the airport experience, the awards clearly determine how well each airport performs against their customers expectations.

"We are truly delighted that Skytrax has chosen to use Passenger Terminal EXPO as the platform upon which to present the awards," says Tony Robinson, founder and CEO of Passenger Terminal EXPO. "Crucially, these awards represent the views of real travellers, so are the genuine opinions of the people who really count. It's fitting that they should be presented at Passenger Terminal EXPO as it's an event which offers a clear synergy with the Awards".

Edward Plaisted, CEO of Skytrax says: "The Awards provide the opportunity to publicly honour the winning airports, whilst at the same time delivering an awards ceremony that is not influenced by any third party - this concept is of paramount importance to us."

Annually attracting in excess of 3,500 key airport industry decision makers, Passenger Terminal EXPO remains the biggest international airport terminal exhibition and conference in Europe, and easily provides the most significant opportunity for the international airport and airline industries to debate all the business critical issues of the day.
