As the name suggests, airport services
management is all about managing different
profiles at an airport. This is more like an
umbrella term, and you may come across other
names as Fixed Base Operators, Ground Handlers,
Above-Wing services and Below-Wing services who
may provide some or all areas of airport service.
Usually, the area of service is specialized, but
most of these operators specialize in management
of certain services at an airport.

FBOs. In general, FBOs offer an array of services
at an airport, primarily with regard to general
aviation. The core line services are the (ground)
handling, fueling and hangaring of aircraft, but
some operators also provide aircraft management
repair and overhaul (MRO) and aircraft
charter and management (ACM) services as well.
Many FBOs are commissioned by the airport
authorities for certain commercial operations,
such as aircraft ground handling, terminal/gate
services, and property management.

More often than not, a ground handler specializes
in commercial aviation. They usually handle
services below the wing, and hence, you may also
come across the term called below wing
services. They typically provide such commercial
aircraft services as aircraft ground handling,
baggage handling, aircraft fueling, and other
services which take place on the airport ramp.

Above-wing" services. Essentially "Above-wing"
services are related to anything to and from the
aircraft. The list may include ticketing, gate
agent services, provisioning the airplane,
handling of passengers, baggage management, water
services and coordination of other services.
