BWI AIRPORT, MD (February 28, 2006) - The concessions program at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) has been honored by Airport Revenue News with the 2006 award for Airport with the Best Concession Program. Several individual concession operators at BWI were also recognized with awards in the annual competition that highlights top retail and food programs among North American airports.
“We are honored to be recognized with this prestigious award,” said Timothy L.

This award affirms our goal to offer outstanding food and shopping for our passengers in a world-class airport setting.”
Campbell added, “I must acknowledge the performance of our concessions developer, BAA Maryland, and all of the individual operators. These dedicated professionals have done an excellent job in establishing the BWI AIRMALL.”
