Jet Aviation Trumpets Aviance
Zurich's Jet Aviation is talking up a new ground handling alliance
dubbed Aviance, formed earlier this year with five other companies
here in Geneva. The partnership is designed to let operators secure
ground services at 34 locations in seven countries with minimal
negotiation hassles behind the signing of multi-location contracts.
Besides Jet Aviation, the Aviance partners are Alyzia Airport
Services of France, Celebi Ground handling of Turkey, Euro Handling
of Spain, GHI of the United Kingdom and Laufer Aviation of Israel.
"It is a gain for all participants," said Urs Zorn, GM
of Jet Aviation Handling AG in Zurich. Individual Aviance members
remain independent, but "benefit from each other's local knowledge,"
Jet Aviation says. "Airline companies will benefit from joint
quality and safety systems aimed at creating the highest standards
of client services," said Zorn.
Aviance offers passenger, ramp and cargo services, as well as ground
handling, on a common-contract basis.
