Southwest Airlines Goes Airborne with Stertil-Koni Vehicle Lifts

Southwest Airlines has discovered a novel way to get airborne, particularly when it comes to taking delivery of its new airport service vehicles.

When the top-rated carrier recently needed to offload its new, towbarless airport pushback vehicles from a flatbed truck, it turned to heavy duty mobile column lifts from Stertil-Koni for the assignment – saving Southwest money while making the process quicker and more efficient.

As Southwest Airlines’ Allen Brown, explained, “We used to have a crane meet the equipment for off-loading, now we use the lifts instead.  The Stertil-Koni lifts are awesome.” 

Noted Stertil-Koni President Jean DellAmore, “As the recognized leader in heavy duty vehicle lifting systems, we are proud to be of service to another industry leader, Southwest Airlines.  It is extremely gratifying to see how innovative organizations of all types are using our lifting systems to achieve greater performance and efficiencies.”
