Alliance Airlines brings home its MRO capabilities with $60 million facility in Queensland

 Australia’s Alliance Airlines has opened a brand-new $60 million maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility at Rockhampton Airport, Queensland, Australia in an attempt to bring the MRO capabilities in-house. Earlier, Alliance Airlines used to offshore the maintenance of its fleet relying on Jet Aviation’s maintenance facility in Cairns, northern Queensland, apart from sending maintenance work overseas to Fokker Services Asia in Singapore, Austrian Airlines Technik in Slovakia and COOPESA in Costa Rica.

Commenting on the significant milestone, Alliance Airlines Managing Director, Scott McMillan said “The new Maintenance and Repair facility means we have been able to bring our maintenance activities from overseas back to our home soil in Queensland,” said Scott McMillan, Managing Director, Alliance Airlines. “Alliance Airlines sees Rockhampton as a key hub for our operations, and this facility solidifies our long-term commitment to the region. We are absolutely confident that this significant investment in aviation will attract other industry participants to invest here in Rockhampton.”
