Abstract: At the Passenger Expo 2015 in Paris, NACO (Netherlands Airport Consultants) presented the ‘Airport Fitness Programme’. The programme, developed in-house by Majidah Hashim and rolled out by Vivekanandhan Sindhamani and the author, is a practical guide to achieve real benefit from sustainability for your airport business. It assists airports in cultivating strong and value-driven management strategies, as well as instituting productive and long-term relationships with their stakeholders. This paper aims to provide further background to the programme, such as the demand that was identified, its practical application and its regulatory context and relevance for today’s airport manager. This embodies the scope of the paper. In summary, the paper will allow the airport manager to assess whether the sustainability programme being undertaken at his or her airport is benefiting the business of the airport. Or is there scope for some ‘training sessions’ to tone the existing programmes and bring more focus?
