Iam sure both BA and Aviance have 'exit clauses' in their contract, in the event things go wrong - whatever thay may be...

Aviance, (THE GOAHEAD GROUP) will not tolerate losses - where ever they are incurred, as we have now seen with the LGW base closure - A major player in the Aviance newtork of airports.

OK, there are a 'few' airports where Aviance do make money, but can a few airports justify the running of all the other airports and the associated costs?

Interesting times ahead for all.

BA will find another handling agent IF Aviance decide to close airport bases where BA are handled. Its not really a big deal. Its been proven this past year that handling agents (whoever they are) can provide an equal - if not better service than staff from within BA so changing wont be such a big issue...

(Changing initially from BA Staff to a handling agent was a task but things have settled down and are working well)

Take nothing for granted!
