вЂњThe outcomes of the discussions and conference conclusions in the Safety and Facilitation streams will help with the continued recovery of the aviation industry and drive improvements in the overall levels of safety of the aviation ecosystem. вЂњACI has had an impactful presence at the HLCC advocating on behalf of our member airports and the whole aviation community,вЂќ said Luis Felipe de Oliveira, ACI World Director General.

The facilitation stream addressed key future challenges facing aviation in general, and airports in particular, including ensuring a risk-based approach to facilitating the continued recovery of aviation, accessibility for all passengers, the continued development of National Air Transport Facilitation Programmes and Committees, digitalisation, and further development of seamless and contactless processes within aviation.

In response to its call for sustained safety levels, the conference agreed that it would work to build better oversight of ground handling activities. In this regard ACI received strong support from many States for its paper on вЂGround Handling as a Key Component of the Long-Term Resilience and Sustainability of the Aviation System,вЂ™ which highlighted the importance of Ground Handling Service Providers (GHSPs) as part of the longer-term economic and social sustainability of the aviation ecosystem. In line with ACIвЂ™s advocacy at the HLCC, the joint statement also called on governments to take action to implement risk-based, pragmatic approaches such as mutual recognition of vaccines and interoperable solutions for proof of health status, and to be guided by ICAOвЂ™s work to provide guidance for the evolution of existing risk management measures as the COVID-19 pandemic retreats or becomes endemic.ДЄCI World along with industry partners, pledged to continue to provide support towards building long-term resilience through the enhancement of crisis response capabilities, commitment to long-term climate goals, and supporting the outcomes of the facilitation and safety technical streams of the HLCC. ACI World has welcomed the adoption of a declaration by Ministerial participants of the International Civil Aviation OrganizationвЂ™s (ICAO) High-level Conference on COVID-19 (HLCC), which supports the long-term resilience and sustainability of the aviation ecosystem.Дuring the conferenceвЂ™s closing plenary session on 22 October 2021, key aviation industry stakeholders including ACI World, CANSO, IATA, IBAC, ICCAIA, IFALPA, and IFATCA presented a joint industry statement welcoming and endorsing the commitment by Ministers to ensure sustained operations and the provision of essential air services, while safeguarding fair competition, as well as taking effective measures to safely restore international connectivity and support the revival of the global economy.
