SAFE TRAVEL
SAFE TRAVEL AT SHARJAH AIRPORT In keeping with its overall ethos of passenger safety and convenience during the global pandemic, Sharjah Airport introduced innovative measures to safeguard passenger travel and to reassure travellers that their health and safety is top priority.
Last year, the airport invested in the latest technological innovations to ensure safe travel, including self check-in, boarding card validation system, new smart information desk advanced infrastructure and smart application for travellers aimed at reducing physical interactions and preventing the spread of Covid-19. These efforts were recognised in the awarding of the Airport Health Accreditation (AHA) certificate from the Airports Council International (ACI).
Sharjah Airport Dedicated Area for PCR Testing Sharjah Airport invested over AED 6 million for a dedicated area specifically designed to manage arrival medical procedures, such as PCR testing, for all arrival passengers. Spanning across 2,471 square metres, this area efficiently expedites procedures for the convenience and safety of travellers. The installation of GCC lanes, lanes for other nationalities and fast track lanes has accelerated safe movement through arrivals. The area also includes all the required facilities such as restrooms, a baby changing room and special needs restrooms, allowing total peace of mind for passengers travelling through Sharjah Airport.
Covid-19 Testing Lab at the Airport Sharjah Airport has granted the health service provider Pure Health, approved by the Ministry of Health, the authority to launch a laboratory at the airport to issue the results of nasal swab samples for travellers and enable them to adapt their plans, taking into account the safety of all individuals. The laboratory services have the ability to efficiently deal with a large number of incoming travellers.
