WFS to pull out of MAN at the end of October, Jet2 to go full self handling. TK/SN to move elsewhere.

ASIG bought out by Menzies.

Rumour has it Aviator are filing for bankruptcy?

I believe SN/TK went to ASIG at MAN - So presume Menzies by default.

Jet2

With Jet2 going to STN who will handle it as all handling agents are at full capacity and cannot recruit fast enough to replace those who are leaving.

Jet2 do self-handling at their other main bases.

Menzies are going for the DY and SK contract plus they will have obtained all the ASIG contracts which is soon to include TK and SN due to WFS leaving MAN

I would highly doubt they would fully self handle above the wing at a brand new base that is too much to put on them in a short space of time.

Given there's now only 3 handling agents at MAN, I'd be surprised if Menzies didn't put in a bid for these two

I can't see Dnata bidding for either of those contracts, and they have both just recently left Swissport so I'd assume Menzies by default

first post here so hello to all

aviator staff have been told they have until the end of the month at man.

there is talk that swissport is looking into both DY and SK at man. they did not leave on bad terms so do not rule it out, but there is also thomas cook to consider. all three would be too much to take on for swissport in one go.

LGW - Menzies have confirmed they will be taking on two new contracts at the end of the month, both previously handled by Aviator.

Icelandair starting on the 26th and Ukraine International Airlines starting on the 30th.

Seems like their hand has been pulled with little other option.

Virgin back to Swissport at LGW.
I thought Swissport had left LGW ?

See my comment about the return of Swissport on the Aviator thread from 23.9.16.

LA compangie suspend LTN flights.

Atlasglobal to return to STN, not sure if that will mean they will move from LTN.
