Abu Dhabi Airports, in partnership with Etihad Airways, announced the introduction of wellness ambassadors to Abu Dhabi International Airport.
This team of specially trained service professionals are part of Abu Dhabi Airports’ commitment to protecting the health and wellbeing of passengers throughout their journey through the airport.
The wellness ambassadors will support passengers by answering common questions relating to keeping healthy during travel and provide advice and recommendations on how to stay safe. They will also provide additional support to passengers who need it.
In addition to addressing passenger needs, the wellness ambassadors work to ensure that the airport and its travelers continue to comply with all the relevant UAE Government regulations and guidelines issued by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
This includes encouraging social distancing, monitoring the regular sanitization of surfaces, communicating testing and isolation procedures, and providing hand sanitizer and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as masks and gloves to passengers.
The wellness ambassador’s initiative at Abu Dhabi International Airport follows the recent introduction of the touch-less elevator technology at the airport as well SterixGates sterilization booths designed to safely disinfect a person within as little as three seconds.
Other new technologies and precautionary measures deployed at the airport include thermal scanning cameras that incorporate the latest Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, as well cameras with facial recognition capabilities and heat motion sensors.
