SAS to Aviator at MAN, from Swissport.

Aviator seem to be grabbing as much work as possible at the moment. Could this be the usual "New entrant will to work for free" tactic that has been all to prevalent at MAN over the years.

Menzies are recruiting TCOs at LHR starting at £10.80/hr.

Aviator have been undercutting a fair bit, if the rumours are to be believed.

What about the new Chinese airline operating from LGW, plus CX at LGW ?? Who has these contracts?

[strawberry Ribena]

Cathay are going to dnata. And Tianjin are going to airline services

[Habana2118]

Thanks for the info

What's happening to Norwegian at lgw? Rumours are they going to become self handling?

[The96er]

Norwegian are indeed going self-handling from 1st December.

Does that include Ramp handling too or just above wing ?

[Habana2118]

Are we seeing the same old cycle again? One agent has by far the majority of contracts, can't cope then gets in a mess... Just like swissport a couple of yrs ago, having said that still amazes me that the worlds no 1 would pull out of London's second biggest airport!

You can be No.1 but what is the point if you are loosing money so why stay. Better to use your equipment etc at other locations where returns are better.

[strawberry Ribena]

Lgrima im guessing WW and PS are going to Menzies?

[The96er]

I believe Norwegian self-handling will be 100% everything. Ramp. belt, gate, etc...

So Norwegian going full handling at LGW, Jet2 going full handling at MAN - Seems that contract handling isn't as great as first thought. Great for the accountants but comes at the result of generally poor service.

[Habana2118]

So ASIG being sold to Menzies! Major expansion for LHR and the US plus the refuelling is another string to their bow

[cjhants]

Do we know what is happening to Signature?

[Habana2118]

Believe it's not part of the deal... Just ASIG

[strawberry Ribena]

Asig as a whole? Or just the fuelling side?

[Habana2118]

The whole of ASIG, check out the John Menzies website or BBA Aviation (current owner of ASIG) site for the press releases
