GROUND TRANSPORTATION


It's been a very long day in the air. You're tired. Your crew is tired. And if you are responsible for the passengers in the back of the airplane, they are probably tired too. You finally have the airplane parked and all buttoned up. The paperwork for the day has been completed. All you want to do now is get to the hotel where you can get a bite to eat and relax. Your crew, and maybe the passengers, are all waiting to go.

But where's the ground transportation? And then everybody looks at you……
 

  • Did your operations support vendor order the transport?

  • Did they confirm that it was ordered?

  • Was the ground transportation company told of your ETA and exactly when to be there?

  • Was the ground transportation company contacted to make sure that they were indeed there and waiting for you?


Did your operations support vendor take into consideration YOUR requirements: Things like number of crew and passengers needing transportation, security, plane side access, English speaking drivers, etc?

When you book your ground transportation through SKYPLAN you get the kind of transport you ask for, where you want it, and when you want it.
 

GROUND HANDLING:


A Ground Handler is almost always an operational necessity for every stop. It can be in the form of a Fixed Base Operator or a major airline, or airline handling company, depending on the type of aircraft you are using and your operational requirements while at that airport.

An airport Ground Handler is a key on-site manager while your aircraft is on the ground. It can be responsible for anything from parking and aircraft security, to the coordination of fueling, ground transportation, customs & immigration, load & unload, ramp services, catering, and the million other details that are required when you are transiting an airport.

Many airports provide a number of Ground Handlers to choose from and Skyplan’s world-wide data base and large network of contacts, and also our continuous personal experience with these companies, allows us to match the right Handler with the right aircraft, and at the best possible price. Once the Ground Handler is selected our constant communications with their staff before your arrival and during your transit insures a smooth, professional, and trouble free stop.
