Lufthansa Technik AG and Wizz Air have further expanded their close cooperation with a five year exclusive contract covering about 150 C-checks on more than 80 Airbus A320 aircraft of Central and Eastern Europe`s largest low-fares carrier. Beginning in March, the maintenance work ranging from C1 up to C4/C8 will be carried out by Lufthansa Technik Budapest.
Specialising in line and base maintenance of narrow-body aircraft, the Budapest facilities within Lufthansa Technik`s worldwide network are set up following most modern standards of lean production and quality management, thus ensuring Wizz Air short turnaround times and most competitive prices with the high quality level of services Lufthansa Technik is known for.
In the hangar of Lufthansa Technik Budapest at Ferihegy Airport, four narrow-body aircraft can undergo a C-check simultaneously in two hangar bays; In both docks the aircraft can be painted on the spot without being pulled into a special painting hangar, saving time and money. Numerous workshops, for example for non destructive testing, cabin interiors or flight controls, are also located on the company
