Embraer has
signed a long-term Pool Program Agreement with Mongolian Hunnu Air
to support a wide range of repairable components for the airline’s
recently leased fleet of E190 aircraft.
Hunnu Air is the first E190
operator in Mongolia and took delivery of its first E190 this year
in May.
The Pool Agreement includes full repair coverage
for components and parts as well as the access to a large stock of
components at Embraer’s distribution center, which will support
the start of the airline’s E190 operation.
“We are the
first airline in Mongolia operating E-Jet series of airplane. By
signing this contract, we would like to strengthen our partnership
with Embraer not only for its industry-leading products, but also
for its strong services and support network,” said Munkhjargal Purevjal, CEO of Hunnu Air. “We believe the direct support from
the manufacturer will secure a highly reliable operation of our
E190 fleet, guarantee the competitiveness and availability of the
aircraft, which is critical to our daily flight operation and will
also improve the passengers’ satisfaction.”
Earlier this year, Hunnu Air signed an agreement to lease four E190s from CDB Aviation
to expand its fleet size and route network. They started flying
the first E190 from June 2019, with the other three scheduled to
be delivered in 2020 and 2021.
Johann Bordais,
President & CEO, Embraer Services & Support, said, “It is always our
mission to offer the most comprehensive portfolio of services and
support solutions with the highest return-benefits to all
customers, and the Pool Program that currently supports more than
40 airlines worldwide is among the best products we have. With
this program, Hunnu Air is to benefit from the availability of
spare parts, enjoy significant savings on repair and services
costs, and maintain a profitable and smooth operation at the early
stage of their E190’s service.”
