Airports Council International - North America

Airports Council International North America, known as ACI-NA, speaks for airports in North America. The site says it has represented North American airports since 1948. Its policy work covers Washington, D.C. and Ottawa, Canada.

ACI-NA advocates on policy that affects airports. Its issue areas include airport infrastructure funding, airline competition, security, airport operations and passenger experience. It also works on Canada policy and on environmental issues such as noise and deicing. The site says airports need to keep flights moving on time.

The association offers education and training. Its programs include the U.S. Airport Professional Program, a Young Professional Participation program and global training. It also holds conferences and posts past presentations and webinar recordings.

ACI-NA publishes research and benchmarking. The site lists an economic impact report, an airport infrastructure needs study and a North American airport traffic report. It also lists surveys on concessions, airport finance, customer experience and passenger amenities, and compensation and benefits.

The site has tools for members and the public. These include a career center for job postings, a search for airport requests for proposals, an airport trading card program and airport research from the Airport Cooperative Research Program.

ACI-NA has committees on subjects including air cargo, air service, small airports, and public safety and security. Membership includes airport members, world business partners and associate members. The site has a member login, a media center and a contact page.
