Feb. 23, 2015
Move comes after Norwegian changes its ground service provider to Airpro.

Aviator Airport Services Finland, a provider of ground handling services at Helsinki Airport, will begin negotiations with its staff over a maximum of one hundred redundancies, managing director Veijo Karosvuo revealed to Iltalehti on Sunday.

At present, Aviator Airport Services provides employment to roughly 370 people.

Karosvuo revealed that the redundancies are necessary due to the decision of Norwegian to change its provider of ground handling services at Helsinki Airport from Aviator Airport Services to Airpro, a service provider owned by Finavia, after opening the contract for tendering.
