The Cayman Islands flag-carrier has signed a deal for full component support for a Boeing 737-800 that joined its fleet in December. The aircraft was supported by Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance with its previous operator. The deal comes under the AFI KLM E&M Boeing Component Services Program. The programmed which was launched in 2005, enables customers total control over their activities, with technical experience, logistics and fast-track 24/7 access to inventory pools. Cayman Airways is a welcome addition to a diverse list of operators worldwide supported by AFI KLM E&M, which has a strong local technical presence in the Americas and Caribbean region with Barfield Inc., a 100% owned subsidiary based in Miami.
Wayne Miller, Cayman Airways VP Maintenance & Engineering, commented, “I am very happy that we are starting to work together after laying the foundations for a strong partnership going forward.”
Franck Becker, VP Sales Americas AFI KLM E&M, added, “In demonstrating our flexibility and understanding towards Cayman Airways’ unique operational requirements, we earned their trust with our experience and our ability to manage this type of program.”
