In case you're new to this industry, that's just a shuffling of contracts to keep workers from having too much longevity. The same people will be rehired by swissport. There's a few good eggs at the A gates in IAD but the cards are so stacked against them it's hard not to get jaded.
This is always the issue for businesses when they outsource their core competency. It takes an extreme amount of effort to get contractors to perform at your level. If you don't pay them well enough for them to know where there bread is buttered there's no incentive to do the job really well.
