dnata, a leading global air and travel services provider, has been re-awarded the license to provide ground handling services at Z\u00fcrich Airport (ZRH) in Switzerland. The extension follows a competitive public tender conducted by the airport operator, and secures dnata\u2019s position at ZRH for another seven years.<\/p>\n
dnata currently serves 40 passenger and cargo airlines in Z\u00fcrich with a team of over 500 employees, safely handling over 35 aircraft turnarounds and 150 tonnes of cargo every day.<\/p>\n
The company\u2019s recent investments at the airport include the rollout of its digital cargo management system, One Cargo, which automates key business and operational functions, including safety and quality monitoring, reporting and ULD management, with an integrated, cloud-based platform. It also invested in advanced ground support equipment (GSE), increasing the share of electric vehicles in its fleet to 42%.<\/p>\n
In addition, dnata recently announced that it would boost its cargo handling capacity by over 50% at ZRH.\u00a0Having signed a lease agreement with the airport authority, the company is planning to operate its new 9,500m\u00b2 advanced warehouse facility as the sole occupant. The facility is already under construction and expected to open in early 2027.<\/p>\n
Willy Ruf, dnata Switzerland\u2019s Managing Director, said: \u201cWe are proud to have earned the trust of Z\u00fcrich Airport once again. The renewal of our license is a clear vote of confidence in our team, highlighting our reliability and commitment to service excellence.\u00a0\u00a0We will continue to invest in our people, infrastructure and equipment to deliver best-in-class services to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Besides Z\u00fcrich, dnata operates at Geneva Airport (GVA) in Switzerland. In 2024, dnata\u2019s team assisted over four million departing passengers and moved over 103,000 tonnes of cargo in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
