dnata secured a renewed seven-year ground handling licence at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, covering cargo and passenger services for over 20 airlines. The airport operator reduced sole ground handlers from six to three—KLM, dnata, and Viggo—following a competitive public tender. This consolidation reinforces dnata’s long-term position at one of Europe’s busiest aviation hubs, enabling expansion of its cargo and passenger operations. Airlines and handlers must complete contracting by end of 2026, with employees receiving clarity early in 2027. The move signals a sector shift toward consolidated ground handling at major European hubs, improving efficiency while reducing provider competition. dnata has operated at Schiphol for over 20 years, supporting multiple airlines as a key player in global aviation services.
