Abstract
The article “New EASA requirements for ground handling service providers – opportunities and risks for the various air transport system partners” identifies opportunities and risks arising from new requirements of the European Union Aviation Agency (EASA) for Ground Handling Service Providers (GHSP) from Rulemaking Task 0728.
After summarizing these new requirements, an evaluation of expert interviews with representatives of ground handling service providers, airlines, airport operators, EASA and consulting firms is carried out using Mayring’s qualitative content analysis. The categorization is based on the distinction between opportunities and risks as well as the so-called PEST criteria (political, economic, social, technological).
All stakeholders see both opportunities and risks associated with the new regulation, with the opportunities outweighing the risks only from the perspective of the aerodrome operators. Overall, the improvement in flight operational safety is identified as the greatest opportunity, while the potentially higher workload is identified as the main risk.
