What is a line service supervisor?

Line Service Supervisors are professionals in the aviation industry responsible for overseeing the ground crew that services aircraft at airports or fixed-base operations (FBOs). They ensure that fueling, towing, parking, cleaning, and other ground support operations are carried out safely and efficiently. These supervisors manage staff, coordinate daily operations, enforce safety protocols, and communicate with pilots and other airport personnel. Their role is critical in maintaining smooth and secure aircraft turnaround and ground handling services.
