4 June 2021: Flair Airlines has signed EPCOR for an exclusive maintenance contract for their expanding Boeing 737 fleet. EPCOR is a subsidiary of AFI KLM E&M based in Amsterdam and they specialize in APU and pneumatic components.
Guy Borowski, VP Maintenance of Flair Airlines said, “EPCOR’s airline mindset with competitive pricing and its continuous workshop process improvements.”
Bernard Kuiken, Commercial Director of EPCOR, said “We are very proud to be able to support Flair Airlines through AFI KLM E&M’s global MRO network. In a challenging time for our industry, only a few operators have explicit short growth ambitions like Flair does. With over 450 Honeywell GTCP 131-9B APUs repaired since we were licensed, you may call us real -9B experts.’’
The contract covers the repair and maintenance of the Honeywell GTCP131-9B APU. Key for winning this contract is the expertise that EPCOR has as Honeywell licensed Airline MRO, their ever-evolving predictive maintenance system ‘Prognos® for APU’ with latest APU Fleet management functionality.
Flair Airlines, Canada’s only independent ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC), is expanding ambitiously with the addition of 13 new Boeing 737MAX 8 aircraft in 2021. Currently the Canadian operator uses three 737-800s, and the new aircraft will grow the fleet to 16.
