To me that is to commission (order). So, OK, the airline orders, passes on, requests the service from the airport, a sole provider. We can agree on that

Now, secondly ..... you believe the airline is not allowed to monitor the service, is prohibited from monitoring the service provided to its passenger?

and, I guess thirdly, .....if if the airline learns (through monitoring or other means) that its passenger is in distress because of the airports dereliction, then the airline faces censure if it helps the passenger?
