Aviation support services provider Alpha Airports has signed a three-year contract to provide its catering services on Etihad Airways’ direct flights from Sydney to Abu Dhabi.
The UK-based company’s Flight Services division commences its contract today. Etihad Airway’s route to Sydney, the carrier’s first to Australia, will operate three times a week but will, from June 2007, become a daily service.
“Our business in Australia goes from strength to strength. This contract clearly demonstrates that we are becoming the partner of choice for many airlines,” said Peter Williams, CEO, Alpha Airports.
Alpha Airports also boasts contracts with Cathay Cathay Pacific, Malaysian Airlines, Air New Zealand, Air Tahiti Nui and Royal Brunei.
