STN stuff

There is news flying around the airport this morning that AA are using Swissport for thier front of house and Servisair for thier ramp I dont know how true this is.

I can't believe for one minute that either company would agree to this. It would be all or nothing........... I may be wrong !!!

Sounds very likely that Swissport have the AA contract by what has been said today.

why are you not surprised? Did they really want it? Bearing in mind all the 'dedication' they are looking for,is the contract really desirable?

Would AA have ever chosen Servisair?

I cant believe that AA would have ever considered Servisair as they handle MXJ and EOS. whatever the reality might be there would be a percieved conflict of interest

"Dedication" is the name of the game at Swissport.
e.g. EZY / FR.

AA were in STN before in early 90's?
Did Servisair handle back then?

Back in 1992-3, AA at STN were self-handling for passenger services and security, used Forte Inflight Catering for food, Servisair for ramp/baggage/loading and Servisair for cargo handling.
