They use real-time communication tools and established protocols to manage aircraft movements, allocate ground resources, and quickly resolve any scheduling or operational conflicts. This collaboration helps maintain on-time departures and arrivals, minimize delays, and uphold safety standards, making teamwork and strong communication skills essential in this role.
