ITA Airways has inaugurated the new Crew Briefing Center (CBC) at Rome Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci Airport, built in line with the company's values and goals: people-centricity, sustainability, innovation and digitalization.

An "integrated" place where aircrew - in addition to receiving necessary operational information (flight plans, weather reports, destination information, service standards, etc.) - can also perform all administrative tasks related to business life (medical examinations, documentation, vacation management, etc.).

From the cockpit to the crew's private rooms: here's what you'll never see about ITA Airways' A350

The new ITA Airways CBC at Fiumicino is a space of more than 1,000 square meters that, thanks to the unification of areas Landside (500 square meters) and Airside (670 sq. m.),enabled by the reallocation of radiogenic controls, reduced the path to crew boarding.

Even more functional areas have been created within the CBC with:

Individual resting chairs with a separate, dedicated area;
New locker room areas with large, comfortable spaces;
A new luggage room that is even more spacious and functional.

Specifically, the Landside area (access area, before security checks) contains the administrative offices, the medical service room, 1 meeting room, 3 rooms dedicated to "reserve" staff, and a break area.

The Airside area (after security checks) includes 11 briefing rooms, 1 large briefing package area and a break area.

In line with its commitment to sustainability, inside the CBC a 30-meter long wall was dedicated to "The Same People" illustration of ITA Airways' Sustainability Manifesto.
