A new campaign and range of measures to help passengers and staff prepare for the return of travel has been announced by Edinburgh Airport.
The ‘let’s all flysafe’ campaign is part of the airport’s readiness programme as airlines begin to restart operations and will provide confidence and reassurance to those travelling through and working at the airport.
Measures introduced at the airport include:
One-way colour-coded systems to manage flow and social distance
Hand sanitising stations installed inside and outside the airport
Protective screens installed in check-in, security and arrivals
A trial of temperature checking technology for departing passengers
Staff wearing face coverings and PPE in passenger facing areas
Enhanced cleaning schedules and new fogging machines to disinfect trollies and wheelchairs
Deep cleaning of security trays, and new anti-viral trays introduced
E-learning Covid-19 modules for all staff
The campaign will be backed by new signage at the airport clearly explaining to people where they need to go. They include colours different from the traditional brand colours. The sky-blue, maroon red and lime green will differentiate the campaign from regular materials, and have deliberately been chosen to help those who are colour-blind distinguish between the different routes.
Social media graphics will also be used to prepare people ahead of arriving at the airport, while emails containing the same messaging will be sent to our contacts database.
The campaign encourages staff and passengers to work together and for all of us to do what we can to protect each other and flysafe. The airport has introduced five general rules for travellers to follow:
Don’t risk it - don’t fly or come to the airport if you feel unwell
Protect yourself and others – please wear a face covering
Clean your hands often – wash or use sanitiser
Maintain social distancing and be mindful of other passengers
Be kind, be patient and flysafe
The introduction of the campaign and enhanced measures comes as airlines such as easyJet, Ryanair, Loganair, Wizz and BA look to reintroduce parts of their schedule.
