High security operations

GAP has always been a pioneer in quality and security programs, aware that our operations depend on the safety and satisfaction of our passengers. This is the reason why we have invested a great deal in the implementation of standards that are consistent with international aviation industry practices and requirements.

Our solid performance over these past 15 years of operations has earned us Safety Management System (SMS) certifications throughout all our airports. We also have a GAP Quality Policy under which a Quality Management System has been introduced in all of our airports since 2004, with certification under ISO standard 9001:2008 from the Spanish Standards and Certification Association (AENOR). We were the first airport operator in Mexico to obtain that certification. GAP has also earned a Civil Aerodrome certification under the standard described in Annex 14 of the ICAO International Civil Aviation Organization for its airports at Puerto Vallarta, Los Cabos, Tijuana and Hermosillo.

Since 2009, GAP has been included in the list of “Super Companies” published by the Expansión magazine, a distinction given companies who have demonstrated outstanding organizational culture and climate. The list is audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers.

GAP also earned Accessibility Certifications awarded jointly by the Institute for Free Access and the Universidad Iberoamericana Dignified Spaces Department, for providing inclusive facilities open to all people with disabilities.

Having an environmental policy has been crucially important to GAP, and we have earned and work to maintain the Environmental Quality certification granted by the Mexican Federal Environmental Protection Agency (Profepa). We designed and implemented our own Environmental Management System, certified by AENOR according to international standard ISO 14001:2004.

All of these distinctions are simply an expression of our sense of responsibility, of promises kept to our clients, employees and the community, of operating in keeping with the highest international standards.

GAP is the first airport group in the nation to achieve
