Stuff that I see outside my window ...
Emirates/Saudi - Ramp handling done by Plane Handling
Malaysian - ramp done by Alitalia.
Alitalia handles Air Malta in T4.
Furthermore AFSL and KLM Ground Services have merged and created Cobalt Ground Solutions.

As previously mentioned AFSL and KGS are now Cobalt. In T2 SU, MU and KC are now handled by Servisair and in T4 JJ are only handled by Cobalt on the ramp, they have their own pax services.

Not sure why it is but
LH / LX are checked-in and dispatched by Menzies but the ramp is Aviance.

Can anyone update this list? Have there been any changes following the closure of T2 & several airlines moving from T3 to T4?
Thanks

One of my colleagues said that today he saw some Plane Handling people working on a Qantas jet. so maybe that has moved over also. Only time will tell.

It will all be one company come the 1st Feb.
Apparently Plane are offloading the QF29 at Lunchtime since monday.
They cannot do onloads as they need approval from Sydney and the Ramp Supervisor has to be trained to do readback
