Continuing to increase its effectiveness as a global hub and leading the aviation industry, İGA Istanbul Airport continues to represent Turkey in the international arena. Nigar Şeyda Yılmaz, Deputy Corporate Communications Manager of İGA Istanbul Airport, was elected as the President of the Communication Forum of Airports Council International ACI Europe.

Nigar Şeyda Yılmaz, Deputy Corporate Communications Manager of İGA Istanbul Airport, was elected as the President of ACI Europe Communications Forum (Communications Forum of Airports Council Europe International), which is organised by the representatives of the corporate communications departments of European airports to evaluate the changes in the rapidly developing communications sector, share know-how and prepare for innovations and crises in airport operations.

Yılmaz, who has been the Vice President of ACI Europe Communication Forum since 2020, took over the Presidency from Athens Elefterios Venizelos International Airport at the 22nd ACI EUROPE Communication Forum Meeting held at Franz Josef Strauss Airport in Munich, Germany.

ACI Europe Communication Forum, established in 2013 with the gathering of the employees of the communication units of airports in Europe, addresses topics such as crisis communication, PR, multimedia formats, interactive communication tools and social/digital media and facilitates the exchange of information between airports. The forum, which was established to contribute to ACI Europe's new communication tools adopted by airports, analysis and reporting on the passenger experience of airports, presents its annual work programme to the ACI Europe Board of Directors, headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, in January every year.

The election of a representative from İGA Istanbul Airport to the Presidency of ACI Europe Communication Forum, which has more than 80 members, once again proves Turkey's success in airport communication and management in the international arena.
