Astrid Hansen
Passenger Service Agent
Calm at the gate when the day goes sideways
Passenger service agent with seven years at Copenhagen Airport handling check-in, boarding and gate operations for short- and long-haul carriers. Works the full passenger journey — check-in, baggage, boarding and irregular-operations recovery — and keeps flights pushing back on time. Calm and quick when things go wrong, rebooking passengers through cancellations and delays while keeping people informed and composed. Trained on the DCS departure-control system, dangerous-goods awareness and airport security procedures. Fluent across the desk and the gate, and trusted as a shift lead during disruption. Looking for an airport passenger-services role with an operator that values service, accuracy and grace under pressure.
