Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, dubbed America’s Friendliest Airport, has announced that the “12 Days of Gratitude” program will resume this month in an effort to spread some early holiday cheer. The program’s goal is to extend a heartfelt welcome and expression of gratitude to the numerous travelers that pass through the airport in the days leading up to Thanksgiving, which is typically one of the busiest travel periods at Sky Harbor.
Ostensibly to attract the Thanksgiving throng, the series of festivities will start earlier than in previous years on November 19. Flyers can participate in a variety of activities across the airport’s terminals over the course of 12 days, including manufacturing personalized buttons, taking pictures with the airport’s mascot, Amelia the Airplane, and spinning a prize wheel.
There will be a combination of morning and afternoon activities, according to a comprehensive calendar of events released by Phoenix’s official newsroom. For example, on November 19, between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m., passengers can visit Terminal 4 for the opportunity to “Spin the wheel for a chance to win a prize”—a straightforward but entertaining way to earn something extra while traveling.
For a chance to win more gifts, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport invites participants to post about their experiences on social media with the hashtag #12DaysofGratitude. The original press release details the prizes, events, and precise locations; however, it states that “Times and locations are subject to change.” These interactive events give travelers advance notice and the chance to connect electronically, creating an experience that goes beyond the usual holiday travel chaos.
With an annual contribution of over $44 billion and an average of over 1,000 planes and 130,000 passengers, Phoenix Sky Harbor is a major contributor to the local economy. It is also important to note that the airport is fully financed by airport revenues and does not rely on government monies to operate. This season, travelers who are ready for a change of pace or who are just seeking a nice surprise may find the “12 Days of Gratitude” to be a welcome addition to their airport schedule.
