Aeroporti di Roma also informs passengers that dedicated areas have been set up at Fiumicino and Ciampino airports which can be used to administer Covid-19 tests to passengers under the order. The facilities were built in less than 24 hours after the signing of the order, thanks to the coordination carried out in recent days with the Lazio Region and the Ministry of Health. At “Leonardo Da Vinci”, at Terminal 3 arrivals, after exiting the baggage reclaim hall in an area measuring approximately 1,000 square metres, 12 reserved boxes have been set up, which can be extended to up to a maximum of 20, where doctors from the USMAF/ASL will shortly be able to operate in full respect of privacy. The new area will be able to accommodate up to 480 passengers simultaneously, in full compliance with the safety distancing rules. An adequate number of seats is also provided for comfortably awaiting the results of the test.

At “G.B. Pastine”, Ciampino, at the arrivals Terminal, there are 3 boxes over a surface area measuring approximately 150 square metres.

At both airports, information signs in both Italian and English have also been built and installed to inform passengers arriving from Croatia, Greece, Malta and Spain of the new government regulations.

Aeroporti di Roma also reminds passengers that, according to government regulations, entry into the airport terminals – following a body temperature check using thermal scanners – is only permitted to passengers and airport operators and that everyone must wear a protective face covering in the terminals and maintain a distance of at least one metre away from other people. The new measures are in addition to all other initiatives taken by ADR to make the airport safe and comfortable:  from the sanitising of the entire airport perimeter, to the rearrangement of the spaces inside the airport to ensure social distancing, which is indicated by new signs. The information on the service monitors has also been increased, information signs have been added and over 300 sanitising gel dispensers have been installed.

Aeroporti di Roma, an Atlantia Group Company, manages and develops the Fiumicino and Ciampino airports in Rome and carries out other activities related and complementary to airport management. Fiumicino operates through two passenger terminals. It is dedicated to business and leisure clients on national, international and intercontinental routes. Ciampino is primarily used by low-cost airlines, by express couriers, and for General Aviation operations. In 2019, the ADR airport system recorded 49.4 million passengers, with over 240 destinations across the world that can be accessed from Rome, thanks to around 100 airlines operating at the two airports. In 2019, Airports Council International Europe awarded Leonardo da Vinci as the “Best Airport 2019”. For the second year in a row, Fiumicino has confirmed its first place in the ranking of 20 European airports with over 25 million passengers for its quality of service, technological innovation and the efficiency of its infrastructure. This adds to the “Airport Service Quality” award granted to Leonardo da Vinci airport in 2019, for the second year in a row, by Airports Council International World, as the most appreciated airport in Europe out of the hubs with over 40 million passengers. ADR’s management skills have also been confirmed during 2019 by the awards received from Skytrax, the main international society for the rating and evaluation of the airport sector, which verified that Fiumicino achieved 4 Skytrax stars in 2017.
