Lufthansa Technik and Air Canada agree on services for Boeing 737 and CFM56 engines

Air Canada and Lufthansa Technik have strengthened their trusted partnership with the signing of a new Total Component Support (TCS) contract for Air Canada’s future Boeing 737 MAX fleet. The airline also extended the existing CFM56 engine services agreement for a further eight years until 2026. The ten-year TCS-contract covers the airline’s future fleet of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. Air Canada currently has 61 737 MAX on order, with options for another 18 aircraft and purchase rights for further 30 aircraft of this type. In addition, the existing service contract covering the CFM56-5A and CFM56-5B engines powering Air Canada’s current fleet of Airbus A320 family aircraft has been extended. From 2017 to 2026, all work will be carried out at Lufthansa Technik’s facilities in Montreal and Hamburg.
