Emirates and the Engine Alliance signed a Fleet Management Agreement for the maintenance, repair and overhaul of the Emirates GP7200 engines that power its A380 fleet. The Fleet Management Agreement is valued at more than $3 billion over the life of the contract and formalizes the letter of agreement that was first announced in November 2007 at the Dubai Air Show.
The Engine Alliance will manage aftermarket services for the GP7200 engine and utilize the MRO capabilities of its member companies, GE Aviation and Pratt & Whitney, as well as other MRO facilities in its support network, including the Emirates facilities in Dubai.
