Baltic Ground Services (BGS), an international provider of ground handling, aircraft refuelling, and logistics services, has signed an agreement with the Türkiye’s leading low-cost carrier Pegasus Airlines. BGS will provide aviation fuel to Pegasus at Riga and Tallinn international airports. This marks the first collaboration between the two companies.
This new partnership stems from BGS's acquisition of Nafteli Eesti AS last summer. Vitalis Dudys, the BGS Group’s Head of Commerce, noted that this acquisition strengthened BGS's presence in the Estonian aircraft fueling market and allowed the company to add prominent clients to its roster.
“Pegasus has a strong standing in Riga and Tallinn’s airports. Both the latter and the former are demonstrating significant growth. Needless to say, we see great future potential in these markets,” he said.
BGS is part of the Avia Solutions Group – the world’s largest ACMI service company group, which operates a fleet of 213 aircraft. Companies belonging to the group also provide a variety of other aviation services, such as aircraft repair, pilot and crew training, and ground handling.
