Firefighters` Day


Today we marked Firefighters' Day, celebrating the daily work of our colleagues from the Rescue and Fire Extinguishing Department.

To the firefighters working at the two Bucharest airports, „Henri Coandă” and „Băneasa Aurel Vlaicu”, this job is more than a profession, it’s an enormous responsibility.The destinies of people who don’t know you depend on you; people you may never meet, but to whom you dedicate your job so that everything will be fine and they may reach their destination on time.

Whether it's a 40-degree heat outside or a blizzard and knee-deep snow, whether it's night or day, the passengers know they can rely on the airport’s employees to do their job so that the aircraft can land and take off safely. And our firefighters are such exemplary employees.

For the airport, there are no holidays, weekends, Easter or Christmas: the flight plan must be repected rigorously and the safety of our passengers is our main objective, which can only be realized with the support of our colleagues from the Rescue and Fire Extinguishing Department. Our fellow firefighters are an important part of this complex mechanism and for that, we thank them!
