I see that the BHX operations shift manager lasted long.........it seems strange that when ever anybody in a managers role joins Swissport they only last a few months before they tuck tale and run.

is that AS you are talking about? where's he gone to?

legalize 11th January 2010 23:30

The best before sell by date of a SP manager is normally about 6 months. Unfotunately AS's expiry date was up and he did a runner. I hear they have a new opertaions manager but not sure who it is yet.

Probably from LDV or Virigin trains!!:ugh::ugh:

bejw2008 12th January 2010 00:35

Not LDV this time, he's from the Swiss Ticket desk, has got the fine art of lying down to a T and can't be trusted as far as you could throw him! Job center Plus anybody?

Kick in the teeth...
 
Kinda a kick in the teeth for all the aviance staff who at bhx are about to tx across that the circus are loosing there biggest contract... Had heard both Tom n ZB were on the verge of joining aviance prior to the merger.... Pretty grim if true and puts a lot of jobs on the line.. Could always sign up to the 'port!! Where do I get my application..

Regards

Baz

Monarch will be heading to the Circus with Thompsons heading to Swissport
I cannot help thinking this will be a disatrous move for Thomson, as it is rumoured that Swissport have made a loss of £9 million over the last 2 years and need to have a major financial turnround this FY or possibly face going under,and with contracts like Flybe which apparently make little or no profit I fail to see how this will be possible.:confused:

If true an interesting year for Swissport, especially with the threat of industrial action yet to be resolved ??

Hollymead 16th January 2010 20:31


as Swissport have made a loss of £9 million over the last 2 years
Is this true ?

legalize 31st January 2010 00:42

Another one bites the dust!!
 
Heard today that another Manager has been fired from Swissport. Not sure who it is yet. The only thing i know is it was a manager who was based at there new offices at the Business park. When will it all end..:ugh::ugh:

as Swissport have made a loss of £9 million over the last 2 years


Well if it is true they should go the same way as SwissportUK ( LHR ) went with only £2 million loss , fold , as they legally cannot keep baleing out Swisport , well thats what managment from Zurich told us , anyway welcome DNATA at LHR :D:D:D

thomson contract
 
Ok we've had the doom and gloom,here is a little bit of upbeat news....Thomson have decided to STAY with swissport at stansted.Clearly they realised that quality service is worth paying for.

Sprocket2009 8th February 2010 20:21

Plus i would like to think the 95% OTP for the summer and 55% early had a say......GRIZZLER your right Servisair is like the good old days, apart from one fact the good airlines are staying away :ok:

Swissport BHX lose Monarch contract
 
Now official. Swsissport BHX have been told officially that they have lost the Monarch contract.

OPS1978 9th February 2010 14:10

Monarch Contract BHX
 
Does that mean servisair have won the monarch contract or are a new handling agent coming into to do it at bhx?.

GRIZZLER 9th February 2010 17:50

SPROKET2009 and thomsonfly.
 
now that you have got the 95% O.T.D bit sorted on the thomsonfly....maybe you can now try and get 95% of the bags to the undercroft on time.....instead of the 5%.....its not just the onloads you know.....you have to do the whole job.

sat1 9th February 2010 18:31

Gotta be doing summit right otherwise they would have changed agents. Next target--germanwings!! the circus needs to' pack up the tent and move town'
