Every minute counts on the runway. At Sphinx International Airport (SPX), efficiency is not just a goal. it is an essential part of keeping flights on schedule and passengers satisfied. Behind this precision stands OnePort Air Handling, the team responsible for managing aircraft ground operations that keep SPX running at full capacity, especially during peak travel seasons.

Ground handling may be unseen by passengers, but it is the heartbeat of airport operations. Once an aircraft lands, a complex set of coordinated steps begins immediately. OnePort’s ground services team manages every detail with precision and timing, ensuring that each aircraft is ready for its next departure as quickly and safely as possible.

The process starts with aircraft marshalling, where ground staff guide incoming aircraft to their designated stands using clear visual signals. This phase requires accuracy and communication between pilots and ground crews to position the aircraft safely. Once the plane is secured, ramp operations begin. Teams connect power units, handle cargo doors, and coordinate unloading and loading activities while maintaining strict safety procedures.

Baggage handling

plays a critical role in passenger satisfaction, and OnePort places heavy emphasis on reliability. Luggage is unloaded, sorted, and delivered to arrival belts or connecting flights efficiently to reduce waiting times. On the departure side, OnePort’s crews ensure that checked bags are loaded in the correct sequence to balance aircraft weight and simplify unloading at the destination.

During busy seasons, when SPX handles dozens of aircraft within tight timeframes, turnaround speed becomes a defining measure of performance. OnePort’s well-trained staff follow international safety standards while coordinating refueling, catering, cleaning, and cargo handling simultaneously. Their teamwork ensures that aircraft depart on time without compromising service quality or safety compliance.

Ramp safety

and coordination are central to OnePort’s operations. The team follows detailed protocols for vehicle movement, equipment placement, and communication with flight crews. By minimizing risks on the ground, they maintain both operational continuity and crew confidence. The company’s commitment to training and precision is what allows SPX to sustain punctuality even under pressure.

Sphinx International Airport’s reputation as a reliable gateway depends heavily on these behind-the-scenes efforts. As tourism and air traffic to Giza and Cairo continue to grow, OnePort’s ground operations will remain the driving force that keeps the airport efficient and prepared for future expansion.

In the world of aviation, travelers often remember the comfort of their flight, but few realize the expertise it takes to keep everything moving on time. At SPX, OnePort ensures that every landing, loading, and departure runs smoothly, from the first wheel touching the runway to the final pushback before takeoff.
