The Ministry said it is appropriate to restore the airport to its former and internationally recognised name.
According to the statement, the change of name will not affect airport operations, safety standards, or international travel arrangements. The Ministry also noted that in the records of the International Civil Aviation Organization, the airport’s code has always remained “ACC”.
The renaming process will include updating official documents, statutory instruments where necessary, airport signposts, digital platforms, aviation publications, and other communication materials.
The government has appealed to the public, stakeholders, and international partners to support the relevant authorities to ensure a smooth transition.
The Ministry expressed appreciation to all stakeholders for their continued cooperation and support.
