The local partner in ground handling for more than 50 years

With yesterday’s knowledge we look today at how tomorrow can be better

Local handler

Viggo is a national ground handler operating in the Netherlands for more than 50 years. We are a familyowned company with around 1.300 colleagues handling over 65.000 flights a year. At Viggo we truly look after each other and by doing so we can deliver the best service to our customers. We believe cherishing the warmth of the Viggo family culture adds up to the joy our colleagues experience every single day.

In a business where it is all about people, we are proud to be the only local player in the ground handling community at Schiphol and Eindhoven Airport. Staying local and close to our family values gives us a unique, inspiring and dedicated position in which we distinguish ourselves from the network-handlers.

Fresh, friendly & innovative

Our core values define our essence: fresh, friendly, and innovative. Within our organization, the positive atmosphere creates a strong can-do mentality. We take immense pride in working collaboratively, understanding that working together leads to successful outcomes. Our relationships with the customer airlines and the airports we operate in are built on open and honest communication. Achieving a seamless and smooth passenger journey, along with a solid on-time performance, requires alignment among Viggo, the airlines, and the airport to harness the potential for continuous improvement.

This leads to the best possible integral service in which speed and quality are prominently positioned. In doing so, our versatile and committed colleagues ensure surprisingly pleasant customer contact. We take our corporate responsibility in terms of the socioeconomic environment and the environment. Ultimately, this leads to a continuously high level of customer satisfaction for airport, airline and traveler.

Viggo strives towards innovation: a new standard to make aviation better and more fun

At Eindhoven Airport we introduced Temi & Temi, two robots to enhance passengers’ travel experience and provide them with a worry-free start to their journey. The robots are used to support our current colleagues by assisting them in answering questions and navigating through the terminal.

The introduction of Temi is a perfect example that show how Viggo would like to set a new standard. The implementation of these robots shows our constant eVort in order to stay ahead in aviation. What makes this even more unique is that Eindhoven Airport is the first airport in Europe that uses robots for this purpose.
