Comiso Airport (Pio La Torre) CIY / LICB

Sole contracted ground handler at Comiso for passenger, baggage and ramp/aircraft handling. Confirmed by the official SAC/ENAC Comiso 2025 Service Charter (handling 'affidato in appalto alla societa G.H. Catania srl'; certified handling provider cert. n.340, exp 22/01/2029, authorised EU 96/67 categories 2 passenger, 3 baggage, 5 ramp [excl 5.7], 6.1/6.2/6.3 aircraft services) and by trade press reporting the SAC tender award (offer EUR 3,408,388, contract Jan 2025-Dec 2027). GH Italia's own Comiso station page lists Passenger services, Ramp services and Executive Aviation.

Authorised fuel/oil handling provider at Comiso (EU 96/67 category 7.1 - organisation and execution of refuelling and fuel recovery; into-plane). Listed in the official SAC/ENAC Comiso 2025 Service Charter handler table (cert. n.42, exp 13/02/2029). Nautilus Aviation (Palermo-based) markets storage and into-plane Jet A-1 services at Italian airports. This supersedes the claim that the handler GH Catania supplies fuel - GH's contract explicitly excludes fuel.

Authorised catering/ramp catering provider at Comiso (EU 96/67 category 5.7 - loading/unloading of food and beverages), listed as a regulated supplier (FR) in the official SAC/ENAC Comiso 2025 Service Charter handler table (cert. n.51, exp 29/07/2030). Added during verification: catering at Comiso is provided by this company, not by the passenger handler.

Loading/unloading of mail and cargo (plus baggage) using conveyor belts and k-loaders is within the scope of GH Catania's SAC handling contract per the award reporting (Air Cargo Italy). Note: the Comiso handler certification table lists categories 2/3/5/6 (not a standalone cat.4 freight certificate), so cargo is handled operationally under the broader handling appalto rather than as a separately marketed cargo station.

In-house security services company of SAC providing passenger/baggage screening, surveillance and access control. SAC ran a public selection in 2024 to recruit ~100 sworn security guards (guardie particolari giurate) explicitly 'per l'aeroporto di Comiso (RG)', and SAC Service's published activities cover airport security screening, surveillance and access-barrier control under convention with its sole shareholder SAC. Corrected: company is an S.r.l. (not S.p.A.); the claimed 'staff sourced via ICTS' is unsupported - the Comiso guards were recruited directly by SAC.

Operates landside parking management, access-barrier/terminal access control and Help Desk/customer-assistance services at SAC airports including Comiso, per SAC Service's published activities. (Mapping note: parking/access/help-desk; PRM assistance at Comiso is performed by New Citta di Catania, see separate entry, not by SAC Service as it is at Catania.)

Operator selected by public tender providing PRM (reduced-mobility passenger) assistance at Comiso since 01 March 2021, explicitly named in the official SAC/ENAC Comiso 2025 Service Charter ('the management of passengers with disabilities or reduced mobility (P.R.M.) since 01 march 2021 is ensured by New Citta di Catania, an operator selected by a public tender'; 2,892 PRM assisted in 2024). Category note: this is PRM assistance, mapped to pax_crew_transport as the nearest available category.
