EU ground handling rules · apply from 27 March 2028 →

AI agents that do the work. For everyone who keeps the airport running.

Ground handlers, security providers, airport operators: the agents turn what your operation already records into proof — of the service delivered on every flight, of every occurrence and its deadline, of every qualification and its expiry. Inside your systems. Your people decide and sign.

Who it is for

One agent team for each business at the airport.

The same agent team, configured to your procedures, your contracts and your systems — whether you run the turnaround, the checkpoint or the airport.

And the other organisations at the airport — airlines and their stations, regulated agents and cargo, maintenance contractors — on the same basis.

What is at stake

Facts you can check. No numbers from nowhere.

The costs and the deadlines the agents work against, as the industry and the regulator publish them.

29,000+

Aircraft ground damage events reported in 2025 — “one of the most persistent operational and financial risks in ground handling” — and nearly 38,000 loading errors.

€166 / min

Average cost to an airline of a minute of delay at the gate, knock-on effects included — €45 a minute for delays under 30 minutes. 2022 prices.

2028 · 27 March

Ground handling organisations come under EU safety rules: a declaration, a management system, safety reporting, competent personnel.

72 h

To report an occurrence — ground handling staff included — then, where the analysis finds a safety risk, 30 days to send the authority the preliminary results.

The ledger

Every action on record. Every decision human.

A typical day, line by line: what was done, what was waiting for a signature, what was refused. The ledger is yours, exportable in open formats.

What changes

The work moves. The decision stays.

We publish no performance figure we have not measured with you: the pilot project is judged on your own indicator. What we can show is the mechanism.

Absorbed by the agent, with the sources attached and the reasoning written down. Deciding and signing stay with your people.

02 · Before the deadline

On time by construction, not by effort

The deadline is computed the moment the occurrence is read, and the draft exists before anyone has to think about it. Safety occurrences inside 72 hours, security incidents inside 24 or 72, monthly reports on the day they are due.

What arrives late today arrives on time — and the ledger shows when it was drafted, edited and signed.

03 · Every figure traceable

Reports compiled from the register

Turnarounds, damage, qualifications, security tests, complaints: each figure opens down to the cases behind it. For your management, your clients and your authority.

No dashboard to take on trust — files and entries in the systems your teams already use.

Our conviction

By the end of the decade, every airport will have agents working alongside its teams.

We are building that layer — starting with the work that has to be proven. Khelion is an applied agentic-AI lab: we think in years and ship in weeks, and each pilot project advances one platform designed to extend from a single site to an entire network rather than to win a demo.

Long-term by designOne architecture, improved by every deployment. The model underneath is a component we replace the day a better one is available.
State of the art, appliedThe latest agentic techniques — harness, agent teams, model routing — turned into work an operator can sign off on.
Proof as the productWarrant, ledger, explanation. The reason a serious buyer lets an agent in, and the reason it stays.
