I worked with Entebbe Handling Services from 2008 to 2013 in Travel Document Verification. Among other roles, I had to provide excellent standards of customer service ensuring that customers went through the Airport procedures with ease and with the rightful documents making their journey more comfortable and worth going over again. Such responsibilities included ensuring that premium customers, and those with special needs get timely assistance, directing customers to their respectful check-in counters, and or gates, providing additional information required by the customers during their travel, keeping of records among others.
