Airport Handling, a subsidiary of dnata, has commenced operations at Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO). The company will manage nearly 70,000 flights annually for 22 airlines with a team of over 2,100 aviation professionals in Rome.

The company has secured a seven-year ground handling license and invested over €20 million in infrastructure and equipment at FCO. The ground support equipment fleet is mainly electric to ensure environmental efficiency.

Founded in 2013, Airport Handling has built a reputation for reliable ramp and passenger services at Milan's Malpensa (MXP) and Linate (LIN) airports. The expansion into Rome aims to position the company as Italy’s leading ground services provider, managing 150,000 flights annually across its operations.
