- Emergency Preparedness Support teams train for emergency scenarios, including fire outbreaks, medical emergencies, and evacuation procedures. Their readiness ensures swift and effective responses.
- Security Services Airport security personnel and technologies like biometric scanners and surveillance systems protect passengers and staff from potential threats.
- Ground Handling Protocols Proper loading and securing of cargo, accurate weight and balance calculations, and safe refueling procedures contribute to overall flight safety.
