Amendment: Regulation 1008/2008 on ground-handling service providers (COVID-19)

This regulation extends temporary emergency measures introduced to help the aviation sector recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. It specifically focuses on how groundhandling service providers—the companies that manage luggage, fueling, and passenger boarding—are selected and appointed at EU airports.

This affects airport operators and groundhandling companies. The extension allows for more flexible arrangements in selecting service providers, ensuring that airport operations remain stable and efficient during the post-pandemic transition.
