Who provides ground services at KDCA?

Anyone know if there is a company(s) (like regional elite...maybe it IS regional elite) that handles ground services at KDCA? Looking for some part time work possibly as a ramper/CSR/etc. Or do the airlines do most of the work themselves?

Any ideas?

I believe it's piedmont or at least that's what's on the door of the trailer.

Well, yeah, I realize that. I guess what I'm asking is this: I know some airlines do it themselves, for those airlines who DON'T do their own ground services, what company or companies provide ground services at DCA?

Piedmont does ground handling for the US Airways express ramp in DCA. Mainline US Airways and republic flights are handled by mainline agents above and below the wing. They will both ramp up hiring in the near future because of the new slots they are acquiring from Delta. In fact I think they are hiring for it now.

You can try DGS or regional elite but I don't think you get any travel benefits with them.

Actually Regional Elite gets better flight bennies than we do at Pinnacolaba.
