The Airport Awards Airports strive to maximize non-aeronautical revenue while at the same time providing a stellar experience for travelers. This year’s awards honor the visions of airport concessions programs and the teams that oversee them. Two awards – Airport With the Highest Regard for Customer Service and Airport With the Best Overall Program – generated limited nominations in the medium/small airports segment. Because of that, the AX Team opted to merge the two sizes together under a single award.
