Aviance UK is an aircraft ground handling agent, operating at 2 airports in the UK and many more, as part of its alliance, worldwide. It is a subsidiary of the Go-Ahead Group, a rail, bus and aviation services provider across the UK.
The name Aviance UK was adopted following the acquisition of Reed Aviation, Midland Airport Services and British Midland Airways' ground handling activities, which merged with the Go-Ahead owned company Gatwick Handling (GHI).
On 31 August 2004, Aviance acquired full ownership of Plane Handling, purchasing the remaining 50% shareholding from its then joint venture partner Virgin Aviation for a total consideration of £20 million.
In December 2009 it was announced that Aviance UK would move away from the aviation industry beginning with the sale of 11 aviance stations to Servisair with contracts due for exchange by late January 2010. Stations at Heathrow Terminal 1 and Jersey Airport would remain with Aviance until contracts expired in 2011.[1]
Operations
Aviance divides operations into several service lines (although not all services are available at every location in the UK):
- Ground Handling
- Cargo
- Lounges
- Airport Agencies
- Central De-Icing
