Aircraft manufacturer to provide maintenance support for the Boeing 787 fleet
Etihad Airways recently signed agreements with Boeing Global Services for the provision of maintenance support on its fleet of Boeing 787s.
These agreements are part of the strategic partnership between Etihad and Boeing signed in November 2019, in line with Etihad’s ongoing commitment to achieve excellence in all aspects of operational reliability, maintenance, and on-board experience.
Key to the agreements is a Component Services Program for more than 300 operational critical parts for Etihad’s 787 fleet; a landing gear exchange programme including Aircraft on Ground (AOG) coverage; as well as high value airframe components and digital products to optimize Etihad’s maintenance activities.
“By partnering with Boeing as the OEM of Etihad’s 787s, we ensure that the fleet receives the highest levels of maintenance support to increase reliability and efficiency,” remarked Mohammad Al Bulooki, COO, Etihad Airways.
“The Boeing team is ready to support Etihad’s world-class operations with our global scale, reach and OEM expertise,” commented Ted Colbert, President and CEO, Boeing Global Services.
