Each designated airline shall have the right to provide its own ground handling services
("self-handling") in the territory of the other Contracting Party or otherwise to contract these services
out ("third party-handling"), in full or in part, at its option, with any of the suppliers authorized for
the provision of such services.
Where or as long as the laws and regulations applicable to ground
handling
in the territory of one Contracting Party prevent or limit either the freedom to contract these services
out or self-handling, each designated airline shall be treated on a non-discriminatory basis as regards
their access to self-handling and ground handling services provided by a supplier or suppliers.
