As air travel continues to increase worldwide, threats from communicable disease transmission via air travel remains a top public health concern. Airports can serve as a setting for potential community spread while simultaneously, communicable diseases can adversely impact airport operations.

ACRP Web-Only Document 57: Developing an Airport Communicable Disease Response Plan: Guide and Template, from TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program, provides airport operators with the fundamental information needed to understand communicable diseases and their intersection with airports, an understanding of the range of factors that influence communicable disease incidents in airport contexts, and detailed actions that airport practitioners can consider to develop and implement an airport communicable disease response plan.
