It will be starting with four flights per week during the winter season increasing to five or six flights per week next summer.
"This new partnership in SFO is following the one started in May 2022 in Chicago O’Hare, where we’re providing full handling services to the Portuguese national carrier," said Stefano Sciotti, VP International Operations and CCO, Samsic Assistance.
This recent contract follows its successful partnership with Air France KLM at SFO where the handler has invested in new and state-of-the-art GSE to ensure reliablity and safety of the operations.
The US and Canada markets are central to the Samsic’s international development strategy, with targets to achieve 15% of its turnover from the region by 2023 and then increase its share to 30% by 2025.
