12 Days of Holiday Gratitude at PHX Airport

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) is celebrating 12 Days of Gratitude from December 5 through December 16 with a wide variety of activities.

Over the course of the 12 days, events will take place pre-and post-security in both terminals.  Travelers and visitors will be able to win prizes and take photos with the airport mascot Amelia the Airplane and the Navigator Buddies.

PHX will also be hosting art activities and inviting passengers to write notes of gratitude and donate items for a canned food drive, among others.

And throughout the 12 days, staff will be handing out chocolate coins and thank you cards to passengers. Staff will also be surprising a lucky passenger each day with a Phoenix Sky Harbor gift bag.

If you’re heading to PHX over the next 12 days, be sure to check the detailed schedule so you don’t miss out on collaborative coloring, the art scavenger hunt, or other activities and prizes.
