Embraer has announced the signing of a contract for the Pool Program with the TUI Group to support TUI’s fleet of Embraer E195-E2 aircraft fleet. The TUI Group has also announced that the company will take delivery of three E195-E2 jets from AerCap, on a long-term lease. The aircraft, from AerCap’s existing fleet, will be delivered in a comfortable 136-seat single-class configuration in the first half of 2023. AerCap is an Irish aircraft leasing company.
“It’s a pleasure for Embraer to have TUI on board the Pool Program. Beyond having access to all Embraer’s spare parts inventory, TUI will count on the OEM’s expertise to support its E2 fleet,” said Danielle Vardaro, Vice-President of Worldwide Customer Support and Aftermarket Sales, Commercial Aviation, Embraer Services & Support.
The contract will provide TUI Group with access to component exchanges and repair services for more than 340 repairable parts, plus interchangeable parts for TUI’s Embraer aircraft. Currently, Embraer’s Pool Program supports more than 50 airlines worldwide. The TUI group owns the largest holiday airplane fleet in Europe and holds multiple European tour operators.
“Signing this new agreement with Embraer for the E195-E2 Pool Program, ensures a high component availability and access to a comprehensive support and services package. This will allow us to operate our new E2 jets for our guests according to TUI’s high operational standards”, said Geert Somers, Engineering & Maintenance Director at TUI Airline.
