Rumour has it that KISS are about to open up at EGNT?
Who are they?
Where do they currently have stations?
Which airlines do they handle?
Do they have a website?
It will be interesting if they do open in NCL, as Servisair and Groundstar have held the monopoly for years and I would be curious to know which airlines would go to KISS at NCL? :confused:

Thought KISS was a new start up at MSE with rather bright coloured 737's :uhoh:

I believe they are something to do with Menzies!

Kiss are the handling agent from bmibaby.
Their name means "Keep It Safe and Simple" and is the low cost handling division of Menzies.
They only currently have a base at East Midlands Airport.
The airline with the bright pink aircraft is Mama Air and they are no longer beginning operations out of LondonManston or any other airport. Although a rumor mill tells me MSE is in preliminary talks with a brand new airline.

KISS are not actually "the handling agent from bmibaby", although at EMA they set up to take on that handling contract.
They are a sub-division of Menzies ("Keep it Inexpensive Safe and Simple") created to provide 'no frills' handling for bulk-loaded simple operations.....i.e. Predominantly the loco sector.
They are actively looking for opportunities elsewhere, and NCL would be a good opportunity for them.

Menzies are taking over all handling at Belfast City airport this month.
