In addition to information about the range of airports managed within Abu Dhabi, the ADAC stand will feature involvement from many of the subsidiary organisations that work collectively to ensure the highest quality standards and services for passengers, airlines and other airport customers.
Four subsidiaries including Abu Dhabi Airport Services (ADAS), Abu Dhabi Cargo Company (ADACC), Abu Dhabi In-flight Catering (ADIFC) and Abu Dhabi Duty Free (ADDF) will be represented through individual pods reflecting the updated brand with associated logos, and will include visual presentations relating to their area of business.
The ADAC stand will also feature an information kiosk – a direct representation of the popular communication portals utilized at Abu Dhabi International Airport, in addition to display units showcasing exclusive and one off pieces of merchandise available through the premium branded boutiques and other luxury retail outlets.
Showcasing Abu Dhabi International Airport as a world-class gateway for a world-class city, the ADAC stand at the exhibition will also demonstrate the efforts made by the organisation in reaching out to the Abu Dhabi community through the employment, educational and environmental initiatives. As part of this commitment to the holistic development of the city, a special needs spokesperson will be present at the exhibition stand throughout the show.

“ADAC values any opportunity in which we can showcase our commitment to developing Abu Dhabi as a world class city in its own right, and as such are thrilled to be participating in ADIHEX this year. As well as developing our corporate profile, we look forward to taking advantage of such popularity in assisting our passengers on a more personal level, so as to maintain our award winning customer service and dedication to a quality service across all our airports.”
