(MENAFN- Emirates News Agency (WAM)) Abu Dhabi Airports announced that its ground handling service provider, DhabiJet, has been awarded the Regulated Agents RA3 certification for its cargo operations at Al Ain International Airport.
The EU Aviation Security Validated Regulated Agents RA3 certification is a supply chain security initiative designed by the European Union. With the issuance of the RA3 certification, EU-member states recognise DhabiJet as a regulated agent, and confirm that it meets the security requirements for screening air cargo and mail entering the EU. This is a highly significant development, as it positions DhabiJet as a regional leader in the aviation services sector as well as reaffirming Abu Dhabi's position as one of the world's top aviation hubs.
