The contract, signed with Swissport Saudi Arabia, covers complete airport ground services, including passenger services such as check-in, lost and found, and passenger mobility services, as well as aircraft cleaning across a network of four airports in Saudi Arabia: Jeddah, Dammam, Medina, and Riyadh.
“The dedication and professionalism of Swissport teams in Saudi Arabia are behind this award,” says Chris Browne, Managing Director of Swissport in Saudi Arabia. “Everyone on the ground and in the offices worked tirelessly to ensure operational readiness for the start of simultaneous operations in Jeddah, Dammam, Medina, and Riyadh.”
