Collins Aerospace secures Air Europa fleetwide nacelle maintenance contract: 11 April, 2019:
Air Europa has selected Collins Aerospace Systems, a unit of United Technologies Corp. to provide a decade of exclusive nacelle MRO services support for the Boeing 787 including lease/exchange services. This long-term agreement extends an existing 10-year service agreement between the two companies where Collins Aerospace will carry on supporting the Airbus A330, Boeing 737, ATR 72 and Embraer E-195 operated by Air Europa and Air Europa Express.
"Our focus is on perfecting the customer experience, and Air Europa's decision to entrust us with another decade of its service needs tells us that we're succeeding in that mission," said Marc Duvall, president, Aerostructures for Collins Aerospace. "As a leading OEM and MRO provider of commercial nacelles, we offer a unique combination of technical expertise and customisable aftermarket services to meet each customer's needs."
Air Europa is the latest carrier to entrust Collins Aerospace with providing nacelle maintenance services. The airline is expected to expand its existing fleet and receive additional Boeing 787s, which will be covered by this agreement. Support will take place at Collins Aerospace service centers in Prestwick (Scotland) and Toulouse (France) with approximately 300,000 of combined shop floor square footage and full lifecycle nacelle support. Collins Aerospace is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of all nacelles on Air Europa's fleet and, as a result, has the ability to use technical expertise to provide superior maintenance, repair and overhaul services.
