PDX People: Four Stories of Extraordinary Customer Service
Being aware of your surroundings isn't just the key to safety at PDX, it's also part of extraordinary customer service. Whether it's noticing a puzzled or distressed expression, listening closely to a customer's needs or knowing where to find answers – being knowledgeable and observant are fundamental ways PDX People make travelers to our airport feel welcomed.
To recognize airport employees who truly stand out as extraordinary, the quarterly PDX People Customer Service Awards ceremony was held on Oct. 26. The PDX People working committee selected recipients from each of the airport industries to honor at the event. Read the stories of our latest winners or watch the recording of the live event.
