Havaş, an experienced brand in ground handling services, extends its partnership with FBO RIGA that the Company supports as part of its general aviation operations, and undertakes all ground handling and de-icing operations of business jets.
Providing full-fledged ground handling services, including luggage, ramp, and general aviation operations, to airline companies, particularly to the flag carrier airline of Latvia, since 2010, Havaş extended its scope of partnership with Flight Consulting Group and FBO RIGA, its subsidiary company, which offers services to business jets and non-scheduled flights.
With the agreement, Havaş will carry out all ground handling and de-icing operations of business jets that FBO RIGA provides service at Riga Airport until 2024. The cooperation will not be limited only to the Riga Airport, but also extends to other European and CIS countries’ airports’ network, where both Flight Consulting Group and Havaş provide services.
Havaş General Manager S. Mete Erna stated, ‘’We have a good synergy with FBO RIGA that we have been supporting in ground handling services for private jets. Hence, we provided safe and accurate ground handling services to FBO RIGA in their general aviation operations at Riga Airport, which increased in 2020.
We carry our long-established know-how and experiences in our field to our operations in Turkey as well as abroad and attach importance to provide customer-oriented services. Thus, we are more than happy to extend our partnership with Flight Consulting Group and particularly with FBO RIGA, and undertake the ground handling and de-icing operations of all of their flights.”
FBO RIGA Member of the Board Roman Starkov stated, ‘’Our excellent cooperation with Havaş in Riga gave us much more than just a reliable partner for FBO RIGA. The cooperation extended to the whole Flight Consulting Group ground handling network for business aviation and non-scheduled flights that are covering more than 40 airports in 23 countries in Baltics, Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, and CIS. During these cautious times, we are striving to advance our positions in the strategic regions and are ready to cooperate with Havaş with excellence and respect for years to come.’’
