Airport College International attends Heathrow Airside Safety Week 2025

Airport College International was proud to take part in Heathrow Airport’s Airside Safety Week.

The bi-annual event on 19-22 May brought together the entire airside community — from ground handling and catering teams to engineering, emergency services, and operational staff — to shine a spotlight on safety, wellbeing, and innovation.

Throughout the week, Heathrow’s Terminals 2, 3, 4, and 5 were busy with hands-on activities, safety exhibitions, live demonstrations including using VR headsets, and collaboration sessions, all of which are aimed to raise awareness, promote best practices, and foster shared responsibility in maintaining a safe airside environment.

Airport College International team actively engaged in discussions with industry peers, explored new safety technologies, and witnessed live demonstrations that showcased operational excellence across airside functions. 

CEO Pertti Mero said: "This inspiring environment reaffirmed our shared commitment to continuous improvement and collaboration across the aviation sector.

A heartfelt thank you goes to our valued partner, Unilode, whose generous support made our participation possible. We truly appreciate the opportunity to contribute to advancing safety culture and learning alongside the wider aviation community.

Let’s continue building a safer future — together."
