Swissport wins Qatar Airways Cargo business in Amsterdam, Manchester and Birmingham

Swissport and Qatar Airways Cargo have renewed their agreement covering airport ground services and cargo handling at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The contract includes ramp handling and air cargo warehousing as well as handling of general cargo, pharmaceuticals, dangerous goods and temperature-sensitive goods. The contract is valid until the end of 2025. The renewed agreement provides Swissport with a substantial baseload of cargo tons per year at Amsterdam airport where, thanks to direct ramp access, it offers fast and secure transfers of cargo shipments to and from aircraft through the Swissport warehouse.

Via its Manchester and Birmingham warehouses, Swissport can also link Qatar Airways Cargo to regional airports across the U.K. utilizing its road feeder services to Aberdeen, Belfast, Bristol, East Midlands, Glasgow and Newcastle, which are not served directly. These new five-year contracts, commencing September 1, 2020, further strengthen the longstanding relationship between Swissport and Qatar Airways Cargo.
