In Paris the BA staff have transferred to Servisair a few years back (although Europe Handling do the ramp). In JFK there is BA staff for passenger assistance and ramp supervision but about 2 years ago started sub contracting the ramp handling services to Evergreen Eagle.

In Milan they used to have their own staff but then transferred for about 2 years to Globeground keeping ramp with SEA Handling and then transferred ramp and passenger handling to ATA Handling.

I heard that in Cape Town BA stopped using Equity Handling for ramp handling and its passenger handling staff transferred to Swissport along with the ramp handling contract.

Don't know about the remaining airports. However, in most airports BA have tried building long term agreements with the ground handling agent or airline. Usually the staff would transfer to the new company, although not always the case.
