FSS a Slam Dunk during March Madness

The Indianapolis International Airport (IND) and San Antonio International Airport (SAT) teams shined during March Madness. In our continued partnership with Sun Country Airlines, the FSS crews provided aviation security and safety for the NCAA Men’s and Women’s teams.

According to several Sun Country Airlines pilots, General Manager Zach Jackson and the SAT team were on their game and well organized. Players, coaches, and families were ushered from the plane to the buses with ease. Our security teams made security screening easy and stress-free.

Our IND team faced a few hiccups in the beginning but came together. Made of staff from IND, Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD), and even corporate, the IND team setup screening stations to help usher teams in a fast as they could. Director of Aviation Security Hovav Frenkel was on hand to practice what he preaches and provide our staff with some additional knowledge.

Overall, the entire tournament was a huge success for FSS. Our staff was able to display their knowledge and skills, show how we overcome adversities, and how we work as a team. From the FSS leadership, fantastic job all!
