Abstract
This review examines the deregulation of air transport ground handling services, with a focus on developments after 2011. Although ground handling deregulation has received limited attention in academic and industry sources, there are promising research avenues exploring the impact of deregulation on prices, workers, and consumers. This review also considers the responses of labor movement actors, from local to global union federations, to the challenges posed by the deregulation of the ground handling industry. Finally, this review explores areas for future research, finding that research is needed on ground handling deregulation in the global south.
