Ontario International Airport (ONT) is making personal protective equipment (PPE) available to those who travel through and visit the airport through a concession agreement with San Diego-based Prepango, a developer of automated travel and retail solutions.
The kiosks feature face covers, disposable gloves, disinfectant wipes and alcohol-based hand sanitizer, and are available in both of ONT’s passenger terminals, making it the first California airport to add PPE kiosks.
“While the global coronavirus pandemic continues to impact virtually every aspect of life, we are taking steps to make essential travel safe by offering personal protective equipment to those who might forget to bring them from home or are unaware of new requirements,” said Mark Thorpe, chief executive officer of the Ontario International Airport Authority. “The safety and well-being of our customers, employees and others who come to ONT remains our focus as society moves toward recovery and we look ahead to a return to more normal travel routines.”
