LTOU, the entity responsible for managing the airports in Vilnius, Kaunas, and Palanga, has updated its operational response processes subsequent to an air traffic alert. According to Martynas Jaugelavičius, a press officer for LTOU, the revised protocols encompass comprehensive management strategies for infrastructure, ground services, air traffic control, and establishing safe zones for passengers, relatives, and employees within the terminal facilities. Mr.
Jaugelavičius addressed public inquiries regarding safety measures, noting that the mobile application LT72 does not list any designated “hide” spots across the three managed airports. He clarified that the terminal buildings are architecturally designed to accommodate people safely during emergencies. Furthermore, the representative emphasized that the areas within the airports designated for public safety are officially termed “safe spaces,” rather than “covers.”
The operational updates underscore LTOU’s commitment to maintaining safety standards across its facilities in the event of an air incident.
These comprehensive procedures aim to ensure systematic management from the ground up, covering all aspects related to air movement and passenger security within the airports. Separately, the report included a mention of school leaders who reported incidents of air danger, noting that students cried and that the state infrastructure was reportedly unprepared for such events. These separate accounts contrast with the proactive safety protocols detailed for the airports managed by LTOU.
