Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The holiday season is a busy time for the ground handling industry. Last year, over 51 million passengers were transported safely to their destinations over Christmas and New Year’s. Thank you to the ground service providers who work hard during this busy season to ensure air travel remains safe and efficient.

ASA would like to thank all of the members of the ground handling community for their tireless effort this holiday season as well as throughout last year. Our industry has experienced a profitable year, thanks to committed employees from around the globe. We should be proud of how far we have come!

As we look forward to 2019, we are excited to continue our work as the voice of the independent ground handling industry, ensuring that we get a seat at the table. I would like to thank you all again for your service and I wish you a safe and happy holiday.

Yours Sincerely,

Jon Conway
