Effective immediately, AeroGround staff will provide Etihad with support in all aspects of ground handling. The project is expected to take seven months to complete and will involve a three-stage restructuring of Etihad Airways' ground handling activities. Changes are to include an organisational and operational redesign of the aircraft handling and baggage services as well as modifications to the planning and implementation of training.
Herbert Keffel, Head of Aeroground's international business activities, said: "For an airline customer to award us a consulting contract totalling about 400 man days is a very satisfactory demonstration of their satisfaction with the quality of our services and our conceptual expertise."
Siegfried Pasler, Managing Director of AeroGround, commented on Etihad's decision, saying: "We're proud to have been selected for such a substantial and important project. With the expertise of our staff, we will deliver outstanding performance in Abu Dhabi."
