Lufthansa Technik will be the licenced component repair centre and exclusive global asset provider for 200 Honeywell shipped components onboard the A350.
“Maintenance is a costly and complex process, but we see our work with Honeywell as an opportunity to help A350 operators in the Asia-Pacific simplify their maintenance experience,” Lufthansa Technik senior vice president corporate sales Asia-Pacific, Gerald Steinhoff, said. “Over the next 18 months, we will significantly expand our local capabilities in this area.”
The two companies have been working together to provide A350 airline operators with MRO since the type entered service in 2014.
“As an aircraft that is so widely depended upon, airlines feel a mounting pressure to do everything they can to keep their A350s operating optimally,” Honeywell Aerospace senior director Asia-Pacific commercial aviation, Sathesh Ramiah, said.
In four years, Lufthansa Technik has completed 2,000 repairs to the aircraft across the world. It provides direct service to 12 in-service A350 fleets, including seven Asia-Pacific airlines.
