THE Airports Company of Zimbabwe has conducted a comprehensive airport safety and security awareness programme at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport to ensure the safety of passengers.
Airports Company of Zimbabwe manages and develops eight strategic airports, providing safe, efficient, and world-class facilities to connect Zimbabwe globally.
In a statement, ACZ said the safety and security awareness programme was attended by all airport stakeholders
“Our teams dived deep into essential training led by Airside Safety, Fire and Rescue and Aviation Security experts to ensure every takeoff and landing remains secure. All airport stakeholders were part of the training.
“Safeguarding every passenger’s journey is our priority because excellence in aviation starts on the ground,” ACZ said.
Recently, ACZ set bold targets to focus on enhancing safety and security, diversifying revenue streams and improving overall airport facilitation.
These initiatives align with the company’s long-term vision of becoming the regional leader in airport services by 2030.
In 2024, ACZ closed on a high note, having achieved several key milestones, including the successful completion of the US$153 million expansion and upgrade of Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport to world-class standards.
The firm is now prioritising outstanding strategic initiatives aimed at boosting revenue growth, increasing non-aeronautical income and strengthening operational efficiency.
In 2023, ACZ increased airline frequencies to 299, with new routes including Ethiopian Airlines, Cemair, and Zambia Airways, and aimed to continue this growth trend.
As of May 2026, ACZ has been commended for boosting emergency services, including the acquisition of new airside ambulances and tractors.
