Swissport signs multistation deal with Aer Lingus

Swissport International has announced it has concluded a comprehensive partnership with Aer Lingus in which the global ground handler will be named “preferred partner” at ten Aer Lingus stations in Europe over the next few weeks. The stations will include key hubs such as Paris, London, Frankfurt and Brussels.

Commenting on the deal, Remo Hanselmann, head of Aer Lingus Cargo said the partnership makes sound business sense: “With a volume agreement like this, we are not only able to buy-in these services more efficiently and at more favourable rates; we also enhance the reliability and the quality of our ground handling services. I’m also convinced that the resulting standardisation of the product and the processes involved will deliver major benefits to everyone concerned.”
