Tranceaddict 1st Feb 2009 13:05

ASIA X......who got it
 

does any body know who got the ASIA X contract at STN.
Apparently it was Aviance

GRIZZLER 1st Feb 2009 13:40

aviance get ASIA X
 
is that kosher about ASIA X or an educated guess:hmm:

sat1 1st Feb 2009 17:46

sorry grizzler.thats genuine.German wings AND air asia.Do you think they may have bitten off more than they can chew?????

spirit of the age 1st Feb 2009 17:49

I heard servisair had won the contract and were recruiting.

daz211 1st Feb 2009 18:01

And who is getting PIA ?

spirit of the age 1st Feb 2009 18:26

Did'nt servisair handle them once before?

GRIZZLER 1st Feb 2009 18:44

Who Is Getting Pia
 
looks like servisair will be doing the PIA.....lets hope they have fixed the toilets this time, so you won't need a gas mask to get the bags out of the rear pit.......last time it was like a honey cart ...with wings.
:yuk::yuk::yuk::yuk::yuk::oh:

Tranceaddict 1st Feb 2009 20:43

Servisair will be handling PIA as they never officially "lost" the contract before, PIA had to reduce their schedule into the UK due to a number of their other aircraft not being allowed into the EU. Servisair will continue to handle as if nothing had happened.

Aviance, Air Asia and GermanWings, all from their base at cargo!

Hounddog1 2nd Feb 2009 10:32

Air Asia X
 
Not according to an Aviance DM they have not !!!!

spirit of the age 2nd Feb 2009 19:13

spoke to two of aviances ramp boys and they seem certain that they have air asia.whats going on?

Capt Wannabe 2nd Feb 2009 19:50

Handling
 
Aviance have Air Asia X and GermanWings

PIA is apparently still 'under negotiation'

GRIZZLER 3rd Feb 2009 14:13

Pia Contract
 
a memo on servisairs restroom wall at STN says they have got PIA.

spirit of the age 4th Feb 2009 08:25

Pia Contract
a memo on servisairs restroom wall at STN says they have got PIA. Not too sure what is happening at servisair,but I personally overheard their ramp manager at the smoking shed say that they had wrongly assumed that they had automatically retained the pia contract.Capt Wannabe is correct when he says that the contract is still up for grabs

sat1 4th Feb 2009 08:36

Dont tell me servisair have messed up........AGAIN!!!

freightdoggy dog 4th Feb 2009 09:03

What makes you think it is just Servisair that messes up Sat 1 ?

Speak to your Aviance DMs re the redundancies 4 weeks ago and now the company having by law to offer the guys their jobs back having won the Asia X contract.

sat1 4th Feb 2009 09:44

they would do better suing the company,something the servisair boys are doing,and very good the case is looking---alledgedly.

GRIZZLER 5th Feb 2009 14:14

EX
 
SAT 1....don't you mean EX SERVISAIR BOYS??????

sat1 6th Feb 2009 07:41

I stand corrected oh Grizzly One.

TUGNBAR 6th Feb 2009 21:28

Aviance work is some mysterious ways !! Dont forget they gave up there pax handling licence a few years back, they have done exactly the same at LGW recently,and work out of a cargo shed for both places!!. :confused:

Now they make experienced DM's redundant just as they sign German Wings and AirAsia!!! and now you say by law they have to re-employ them, I bet they are not re-employed as DM's......sounds very shrewd to me!!!!:=

sat1 7th Feb 2009 12:17

Having removed the middle managers(DM's) do you not think that the way is clear for Menzies to buy out?Known fact that menzies dislike middle management positions.Interesting times ahead.

TUGNBAR 7th Feb 2009 17:03

Aviance cleary removed the DM's to get the long servers out and pay scales down!
If anyone reading this has recently joined Aviance and your hoping for a long term career think again!!

spirit of the age 16th Feb 2009 19:03

Seems that BA cargo is leaving STN.Where will that leave the handling agent?

TUGNBAR 17th Feb 2009 18:47

Is that handled by Servisair? What will that leave them?

spirit of the age 25th Feb 2009 15:58

BA Cargo is leaving Stn for Manston-mid march.Load masters will still be based at Stn and travel to Manston as required.Massive blow for servisair with redundancies surely inevitable.It seems that an amalgamation of pax handling and cargo ramp work is the only logical option open.'Times they are a'changing'

GRIZZLER 25th Feb 2009 17:13

times they are a changing
 
if true about ba ..yes things might change....but it will not be a new thing for servisair to run ramp and cargo together ,as they have done it before....when the terminal was north side it was a daily treck to cargo to do an offload...and it has been done since ....so nothing new for servisair.

sat1 25th Feb 2009 18:24

what about the redundancies? which side of the operation?and how many?

TUGNBAR 25th Feb 2009 18:59

So who or what was at fault with the recent "Aircraft to Equipment" incident leaving the aircraft tech and parked over the other side.

Flightmech 25th Feb 2009 19:12

Hmmmm. Seen pictures of that one. Looks like the loader parked well within the silouette came off the better of the two.

sat1 25th Feb 2009 19:22

who switched the agnis on?????

TUGNBAR 25th Feb 2009 20:43

So AGNIS was switched off.

Does that mean the flight crew are at fault for coming on to stand un guided.

Or the ground crew for not switching the AGNIS on?

sat1 28th Feb 2009 10:39

If the agnis is on surely that is telling the capt that its safe to proceed? Do you wait at traffic lights if the're green?

GRIZZLER 28th Feb 2009 13:01

sat 1 and traffic lights
 
sat 1, you said do you sit at traffic lights when they are green.........my wife does.

FEROMAN 2nd Mar 2009 20:55

Agnis incident..........
 
If the Agnis was not switched on then unless there was a marshaller present it was totally the fault of the crew for proceeding onto stand. The switching on of the unit is the indication to the pilot that it is safe to proceed.

FEROMAN 2nd Mar 2009 20:57

BA /Global move to Manston................
 
It's not a done deal yet
