Manama, it was during the Bahrain International Airshow 2012 (BIAS), that Bahrain Airport Services handled the first Airbus A380. It was the result of 6 months of  prior preparation, including an intensive10 day logistics program and a three day onsite operation.

BAS provided the on-site equipment and all ground handling services to facilitate the delivery of the first Airbus A380, including crew catering and technical support.

Flight Operations Manager at Farnborough International, Rod Dean said: “BAS ground handling team again was an integral component in delivering a truly world class event.  BAS always provided the necessary level of ground handling expertise to make this event a success; this was reflected as we received positive feedback and appreciation from all participants/partners/sponsors and guests. Undoubtedly BAS is the premier ground handling provider in Bahrain and from our experience is competing with the best in the world.  We are looking forward to continuing this relationship in the future”.
