mas/aviance

30w you are correct, however much like groundstar/swissport, mas/aviance are both the same animals with the same people owned by different multi national companies.

Swissport are finding the new challenge of flybe challenging enough.
The flybe challenge would be a lot easier if both companies worked in unison together (this is not always the case). Although the services they have been providing has not been great (some may see this as an gross understatement) there are a lot of people trying very hard to make it work from both companies.

The loss of the dispatch function has not helped the situation either, although with minimal training some of the ramp guys have done really well, they never chose their new roles and it was forced upon them. Some would make good dispatchers but some would also prefer to do the job they originally applied for.
