Touchdown for triumphant Olympic athletes

22 August 2024

This summer, teams working across a variety of locations have helped athletes travel to and from Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics. 🏃‍♀️

Among them were our Menzies Portugal colleagues, who welcomed the Portuguese Olympic team back home having handled the return flight from Paris. Congratulations to the Portuguese Olympians, who brought home four medals – including one gold. 🥇

In Sweden, our team at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (ARN) ensured that pole vaulter Armand Duplantis safely boarded his flight to Paris, where he not only won gold but broke a world record by clearing 6.25m! Colleagues at ARN expertly helped Armand through check-in and made sure that his special baggage – two five-metre-long pole vault poles – was loaded onto the Air France flight. 👏

Thank you to our teams in Portugal, Sweden and across the world for helping to make this year’s competition a success!
