Apron Safety Survey: Proposed changes Re-define the ACI Apron Safety Survey: Reliable, accurate statistics Show the “real picture” of apron safety Improve reporting methods New Survey: Focus on long standing reporting airports (year on year) Reduce number of airports responding but increase quality of data Collaborate closely with the regional offices for data collection New Survey Breakdown: Target 100 specific airports Multiple airports from each ACI region Specific number of small/medium/large (traffic) Comparison of a the same airports year on year will make the trends identified more accurate
