Aside from base maintenance support, HAECO Hong Kong also collaborates with HAECO Cabin Solutions to provide cabin interiors support for the Finnair fleet.
HAECO Hong Kong, a member of the HAECO Group, has announced an extension of its base maintenance support for Finnair’s Airbus A330 and A350 fleet until 2026. The initial maintenance agreement was established in 2008, and since then, HAECO Hong Kong has successfully completed over 100 maintenance inputs for Finland’s national carrier.
Aside from base maintenance support, HAECO Hong Kong also collaborates with HAECO Cabin Solutions to provide cabin interiors support to Finnair. Since 2021, both companies have been working on the long-haul cabin retrofit program for Finnair’s Airbus A330 and A350 fleets. This partnership ensures that Finnair’s cabins are updated to meet the latest standards and enhance the passenger experience.
During an extended agreement signing ceremony held in Helsinki, Gerald Steinhoff, Chief Commercial Officer of HAECO, congratulated Finnair on its 100th anniversary and expressed appreciation for the longstanding and trusted relationship between the two companies.
Gerald Steinhoff, Chief Commercial Officer, HAECO said, “Finnair is our valuable customer, and we are very pleased to be able to extend our maintenance support to their A330 and A350 fleet in the coming years. Finnair is also highly regarded by us for their ambitious continuous improvement and high operational standards. Our partnership has now moved beyond maintenance services as Finnair comes on board as a pilot customer for HAECO’s digital transformation program. We look forward to this exciting collaboration and opportunity to learn from each other.”
In celebration of Finnair’s 100th anniversary, the airline has unveiled a special centenary livery on two of its Airbus A350 widebody aircraft. The livery features beloved Moomin characters, Moomintroll and Snorkmaiden, sharing a heartwarming hug. The livery makeover was carried out at HAECO Hong Kong, and the aircraft now operate on Finnair’s extensive global network.
“We value our relationship with HAECO, and the extension of our base maintenance agreement will ensure continued safe and reliable operations for our wide-body Airbus fleet. HAECO is a flexible and capable organisation that has shown its capability to renew in changing business environment. A positive, open dialogue allows for productive work to be carried out in cooperation with mutual benefit,” said Juha Ojala, Senior Vice President Technical Operations, Finnair.
