AFI KLM E&M and Transavia France signed an agreement for the first A320neo aircraft to be delivered as part of a significant fleet replacement initiative.
Oliver Mazzucchelli, CEO at Transavia France, said, “AFI KLM E&M is a benchmark partner for our airline in the field of aviation maintenance. Our relationship is based on a sense of mutual trust and understanding that helps facilitate our interactions, and this was once again the case when it came to expressing our maintenance needs for our A320neo fleet. AFI KLM E&M was able to take our expectations fully into account, designing a custom-built service package that’s oriented towards our performance, availability, and reliability goals. The proximity between our facilities and the AFI KLM E&M component workshops in Paris provides a further degree of reassurance and responsiveness and is a considerable bonus for our airline.”
Anne Brachet, EVP Air France-KLM Engineering & Maintenance, said, “We’re delighted that Transavia France is once again entrusting our maintenance services for its A320neo operations. We already provide support for over 400 A320neo-type aircraft for our customer airlines, and consequently have developed substantial expertise, dedicated processes, and human and technical resources for this product. These various assets will now be put to work for Transavia France, with a view to providing high-performance, proximity-based support that’s precisely customized to suit their operational needs.”
