Passenger handling and operations at Dresden International Airport are performed by handling agents:

General Aviation, VIP and Executive Handling (tel. +49 (0)351 881-3270)
ASD - Airport Services Dresden GmbH (tel. +49 (0)351 881-4010)
AHS - Aviation Handling Services GmbH (tel. +49 (0)351 881-4181)

These services are based on the very latest technologies and the airlines' fully automated departure control systems (DCS). These systems guarantee that the standards required by IATA are met at a very high level. The handling agents' service package naturally also includes dealing with baggage claims using the SITA universal World Tracer baggage tracing system.

All personnel are trained and qualified to international aviation standards. They also undergo refresher courses on an ongoing basis. All Operations personnel have passed the mandatory IATA dangerous goods training courses for aviation (category 7 and 10) and are capable of handling all aircraft types. The handling agents have their own private radio frequencies so that handling services can be requested from the air before the aircraft land. Making handling on the ground even smoother and quicker. Passenger handling is fully automated. Load planning and load and trim sheet generation are also computerised.
