Qatar Airways appoints Eirtech Aviation in seven year contract

Eirtech Aviation has been appointed by Qatar Airways to paint airline’s fleet. This is one of the Irish aviation services company’s largest contract wins, which will see the work carried out across a number of its operational bases including Shannon, Dublin, Ostrava and Rome. The seven-year contract involves the exterior repainting of 74 of Qatar Airline’s wide and narrow body aircraft, including 49 Boeing 777s together with a number of A330s and A320s. Eirtech Aviation was awarded the contract following the successful completion of earlier programmes in 2011 and 2013, which included painting the entire fleet of Qatar’s Airbus 340-600s.
