Servisar/American Airlines STN
 

Overheard a conversation at the smoking hut that American are in talks with servisair, as they did hold the divert contract once upon a time. AA staff also been spotted being shown around in servisair van, any truth in the rumour. I hope so cos id be back to them like a shot. Whats it like at servisair now, what are the staff like, hows moral, is the training and equipment as good as it used to be........shink or shink not:O

What do you mean you would be back like a shot?

Surely not to work for S/Air? Not with redundancy talks, dont think so ! !:ugh:

The answer to your question is no, they are not talking to them

You should know better than to listen to the crap spoken at the smoking hut :=

But surely thats where all the managers congregate.

Cost cutting, it's cheaper than office space ;)

true,very true.

You ALL have very suspisious minds. I view from afar, and yes your right, it is a managment haunt.........for airlines too ???????????????:p

oh bless..........have they let you out for the weekend, i think you have put something IN your tea

Yobs
 

I would just like to put forward my thoughts on this thread. Firstly i would like to say that there is no solid basis for the rumor that AA may be parting company with Swissport to seek a better service else where. This seems to have been started by some little scamp who needs a bloody good cuff to the ear.

Secondly could people please adhere to the topic in question and not respond to threads with sporadic bouts of knavish rubbish as this makes me jolly cross!

Now if you will excuse me im off to count my vast amount of money.

Yours faithfully, your social better

Sir Digdy Hotpot

Thats why we should not listen all that smoke is going to there head!

British Airways
 

British airways top bodys looking at stn, hmmm any news on this you good people of pprune.:rolleyes:




EARLY SHOOT SON,SHINK NOT.

No way, British Airways business model is based around Heathrow and will be for a considerable time. I know this as i spoke to a senior person at BA a few weeks ago and asked about other airports and was given a firm response that BA is basically LHR airways and they like it like that for many reasons. But maybe im wrong!!

AA and circus air
 

AA Tried them once before and stn not just diverts but full handling once tried never to return. the way things are going for them i think swissport will have a few more staff if they need them. :D

But swissport are not looking for more men are they. They want to get rid of guys like servisair!:confused:

I heard myself from Swissport ramp agents that AA are not entirely happy with the handling that they recieve. I'm only going by what i heard so i wonder if any one out there can support this theory. If any one from swissport can clarify this then that would be great.

Servisair managers are off to Manchester for discussions some time this week or next to find out whether or not they may have to make redundencies! We shall see:confused:

can't see how there is going to be redundancies, when s/air are just about coping with the work now when it comes in.don't forget its paytalk time, how the company loves their doom and gloom talks this time of year.:{Even when maxjet goes its only a few months and then they will be recruiting for the summer.they will probably get rid of some front of house staff and some managers which would make sense, how they love people in white shirts walking about doing next to nothing.Lots of talk of redundancies lets just wait and see.:)

AA
 

Hi diamond,good to read you again.Your post just confirms what I have stated in the past.The very fact that someone within Swissport keeps saying everything is rosy just reinforces this.I'm sure he's out there, fingers twitching by his keyboard compiling his response!!!!

Any redundancies will effect the ramp as much as the rest.

There will be no redundancies thats bull:mad: mangerment are trying to scare people!

Trap2 welcome back nice to see you again!!

nice bloke that bravo21
 

thats exactly what they are doing mate! Anybody got any genuine rumours, seems that all people want to do is talk about redundancies, getting boring now:(

what rumours
 

true to from trap 2, if you think thay care about us, the mangement that is .we are all :ugh:doomed. :D

hang on a mo! when did i say that the managment gives a monkeys, :=. all they care about is themselves as we all know. Has anyone heard any more about maxjet, last i heard they had their shares froze.

replying to trap 2 the way things are going max jet could be wrap up by xmas

Make you right mate! just looked up their website, shares are still frozen looks like skint maxjet are trying to russell up some money sharpish

was down the smoking the other day heard swissport people talking saying aa airlines were not happy with them at all can anyone put any light on this

God you lot are hard done by! :rolleyes:

subjet 117 would love to reply to your message but not going down that road.would just like to say the gravy train is about to pull into the station. hey peps got a message from grizzler (who ever he/she is) that maxjet had to come back to stansted on full emergency, so more money lost there:{.

Any redundancies will effect the ramp as much as the rest.

The latest word appears to indicate that major redundancies at stn handling agent with the majority occuring F.O.H anyone care to comment?

FOH to lose 31 Staff , and the temp staff are not included in that as they already finish first week of Jan

31 clerical staff at risk This includes Dispatch

Redundancy At Servisair
 

Im just a ramp op for servisair .i have worked hard when they asked come rain or shine .now when there back is against the wall what do they do? make the staff who are SERVISAIR out off work the ramp guys need a medal for bailing our magement out every week.long live the banter and good spirit:D:D

management down the road.
 

THE day the back office gets rid of one of there own is the day grizzler stops moaning ;owen gets it rite and les does some work.till then im waiting for father christmas to drop off a good looking dispatcher.long wait

Nice
 

The day father Xmas drops off some young good looking ramp guys will be a start!! Like you say Wozzel, why get rid of manager who earns double what a member of dispatch or check-in earn when you could get rid of 2 staff who work hard and will do 18 hour days. I think some major re-structuring is in need!!

Rejoice
 

if only .its you and me its sad to say that carry the can.ive heard a wisper that this is the only way they can get rid of some people and in 2 months new contracts more poles happy days .

The AA lads you seen being driven around were a few mechs getting airport fam tickets for the driving permits. From what i've heard the bean counters seem fairly happy the way things are running at STN with Swissport......:\

Wozzel,please no names on this site,it's unnecessary and that's when things get personal. Believe me i'm not one for supporting the management's decision about redundencies but if things don't change then servisair will no longer operate at STN. This is a buisness were,if they need to make sacarifices to stay above the water then so be it.

The company are most likely looking for other clients in the aviation trade but they will not get very far if the BAA do not lower there landing fee's,that's why the company lost so much work because of the biggest overall company BAA!!!!!!

I believe we should be venting our anger and frustration on BAA and not the management of Servisair. They have a job to do as much as we have!
