ACSA urges travellers to cooperate with security at airports
The Airports Company South Africa has called on travellers to cooperate with security personnel at the country’s airports.
In a statement, ACSA said the screening and searching of passengers is one of the measures that has been put in place to keep everyone safe as the country's airports across the network continue to experience a steady increase in passenger volumes.
The statement further said the company will continue to adhere to all national aviation legislation and regulations.
"We know that physical searches may cause discomfort to our passengers, and in view of this, our security personnel have been instructed to ensure that all searches are conducted in a respectful and courteous manner," said General Mzwandile Petros, Group Executive for Enterprise Security.
“We would like to categorically state that ACSA does not have any policies or procedures that discriminate against any passengers or airport users on the basis of gender, race, cultural beliefs, religion, or place of origin," he said.
