i used circusair last week for an urgent aid flight for niger - and then they tried to charge 20% penalty fee for late notification - which wasnt really helpful!! The attitude of the staff left a lot to be desired, given the situation! not really a company i'd like to work with again.

Aid Flight

Am not suprised with due respect that you got treated so badly with your aid flight to Niger, I am only suprised that the circus staff never took the aid themselves as they are that badly off, the un aid for work program must be in full flight (sorry about the pun)

When you look at the ridiculous shifts & the dire pay that the folks over at Servisair - GlobeGround get, it's not so surprsing to see why their staff are so surly, rude & on occasions aggressive towards their passengers. Whilst of course it's extremely unprofessional to take out your bad mood or bitterness on your customers, from time to time all of us have probably done it.

I'm not sure whether it's because their staff tend to be either very young or clearly have been in the industry for too long, but from experience, the staff seem to lack any sort of customer service skills.

Out of interest, at which bases are EasyJet still being handled by Servisair besides EMA? The sooner they go to Aviance or Menzies the better ...

easyjet

at the moment, they are handled by servisair at lpl and have been for 2 years prior to this it was Aviance from the begining, of course easyjet went for cheap instead of good, you get what you pay for, no disrespect to many current servisair employees, they work hard and are conciencious, but really have no chance when run in that fashion as they are.
At the end of the day there are only 2 choices
1. cheap and nasty
2. Dear and good

you cannot have cheap and good easyjet, this does not exist!

Easyjet are welcomed into the Big Top at NCL too, although I strongly suspect (if current rumours are true) that it won't be for much longer. Looks like too long a period of inaction and incompetence is going to see the station lose a number of contracts (EZY, FR, XLA, MYT, SN and AF all very unhappy), and the blame doesn't lie with the ramp staff for once. Looking forward to seeing a few familiar faces at the dole office.

EZY is handled by Servisair at GLA too - great bunch of dispatchers/PSAs, but there are rumours of a takeover by Menzies or P*ssport when the handling contract is renewed later this year.

EZY - Servisair

Looks like EZY are abandoning Circusair everywhere. LPL will be next - rumour has it Menzies will take them.

Long live ZE BUFF!!!

It isn't me either MC!!

hope2leavesoon: I don't necessarily agree with everything you wrote, although there are some alarming similarities at my station pertaining to aspects of the operation that could so easily be improved upon if only people would listen to some of the ideas that minons like me have from time to time.

I hope that the pegs don't come out, although it would be satisfying if some of the guy ropes were tightened up a little.

Just explain, but be constructive about it! I've frequently been EXPECTED to "run about like a blue a**** fly," but I never did and never will.
