Unifi Aviation, LLC
Third-party ground handler (formerly Delta Global Services) contracted for full ramp and customer-service handling of Delta Air Lines / Delta Connection (SkyWest) flights at BRD -- loading/unloading and servicing aircraft, baggage/mail/freight handling, pushback/wing-walker operations, and gate/customer-service duties; confirmed by current station-specific job postings ('Airport Ramp Agent (Delta) - BRD' and 'Airport Customer Services Supervisor - BRD - SkyWest-Full Handling', posted Jan 2026). This directly contradicts a self-handling assumption for the BRD Delta Connection/SkyWest EAS flight -- ground handling here is outsourced to Unifi, not self-handled by the airline.

Cargo handling
Unconfirmed · 3 providers
Bemidji Airlines (Bemidji Aviation Services, Inc.)
One of BRD's three scheduled all-cargo carriers per airport/Wikipedia data, operating feeder flights connecting BRD with Fargo, ND and Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN; as a small Part 135 cargo/charter operator that runs its own FBO at its Bemidji base it may self-handle ramp operations at outstation fields such as BRD, though this specific arrangement is unconfirmed (and, given the confirmed Unifi Aviation contract for the Delta/SkyWest flight at BRD, self-handling should not be assumed by default).

FedEx Feeder
Listed by airport/Wikipedia reference data as one of BRD's three scheduled cargo carriers, operating a feeder route to Rochester, MN; this is a generic route-branding label rather than a named operating company, and the specific contracted feeder carrier and its ground-handling arrangement at BRD are unconfirmed.

UPS Airlines
Listed by airport/Wikipedia reference data as one of BRD's three scheduled cargo carriers, operating a feeder route to Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP); UPS Airlines' own mainline fleet is all-jet, so BRD service is almost certainly flown by a small contracted turboprop feeder operator (e.g. an Ameriflight-type carrier) rather than UPS Airlines itself, and the specific contracted operator and its ground-handling arrangement at BRD are unconfirmed.
