Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen to become ‘silent airport’

 

Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen to become ‘silent airport’

Sabiha Gökçen International Airport will become a “silent airport” on May 10, sharply reducing public announcements inside its terminal to improve passenger comfort and create a calmer travel environment.

 

Under the new practice, announcements will only be made in emergencies, for critical security alerts or operational necessities. Routine boarding calls and general notices will be removed, with passengers expected to follow flight updates through terminal flight information screens (FIDS), airline mobile apps, SMS and email notifications, the airport’s mobile application and its digital assistant SAVVy.
