About Aimo
“I joined Finnair Ground Operations 2022. At the time of joining, I was hired to manage Finnair ground handling operation at roughly ten airports in southern Europe and ten regional airports in Finland. After returning to work from parental leave, I was given a new airport portfolio including AMS airport. This happened right after Finnair decision to award AMS handling agreement to Viggo started to work with Viggo project team immediately to secure smooth transition from previous handling partner.”
The on-site visit convinced us
“When Finnair prepared for ground handling tender in AMS, the first introductory meeting was held at GHI conference. Based on first impression, Finnair team felt Viggo team showcased as an interesting option for Finnair. Consequently, the on-site visit by my predecessor during the tender convinced Finnair team to partner up with Viggo.
The actual start-up preparation was progressing according to common plan created by Viggo and Finnair project teams. The correspondence was proactive and progress was tracked on bi-weekly/weekly level to ensure full readiness for 01APR24."
Pro-active and solution-oriented
"Now nearly two full years with Viggo, we at Finnair are happy to see Viggo’s proactive approach in carrier collaboration and continuous improvement mindset was not just sales pitch. I also have to say I have enjoyed the correspondence we have with Jasper, our main operational contact."
Fresh and agile
"We at Finnair appreciate the fresh and agile organization culture of Viggo – it has been rewarding to visit AMS station to have discussions with Viggo colleagues how they see Finnair operation."
