Singapore Airlines has signed a new Flight Hour
Services (FHS) Tailored Support Package contract with Airbus to
integrate and provide full component support, line and base
airframe maintenance, as well as fleet technical management
services for its 15 additional A330 aircraft ordered in September
this year.
The contract builds on the existing FHS agreement signed with
the airline in 2008 for 19 A330 aircraft. In addition, Airbus is
already committed to Singapore Airlines with a components support
agreement signed in 2007 for its A380 fleet, as well as a contract
signed in 2010 covering its five A340-500 aircraft.
“This further order
extends the FHS support to Singapore Airlines into the year 2021
and we are particularly proud of their continued confidence in
Airbus’ customer service achievements,” said Didier Lux, Airbus’
Executive Vice President, Customer Services. “Through the
delivery of our solutions, we are committed to providing world
leading on-time performance for Singapore Airlines’ A330 fleet.”
Airbus
FHS incorporates a portfolio of guaranteed services ranging from
material supply and inventory provisioning, to repair services,
information systems, reliability optimisation, aircraft
maintenance and fleet technical management. As of today, Airbus
has such agreements covering over 90 aircraft across Asia, Europe
and Latin America.
