SriLankan Airlines and Lufthansa Technik sign 5-year component

SriLankan Airlines and Lufthansa Technik have signed a 5-year component supply contract for the carrier’s Airbus A320 fleet. Spare parts will be supplied to the airline’s home base at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo, where also the main base stock of certain Aircraft-On-Ground (AOG) relevant components is being kept. Repair and pooling of the components will be done at Lufthansa Technik’s base in Hamburg. However, the customer support is located in Bangalore, India, and therefore in the same time zone. This ensures the fastest response time for all customer needs besides Lufthansa Technik’s general 24/7 AOG Desk.
