Joramco, the Amman-based MRO provider and the engineering arm of Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE), has announced its first maintenance agreement for Boeing 787 Dreamliners operated by TUI. TUI Group, a market-leading tourism company that operates five European leisure airlines with a combined fleet of over 130 aircraft, had previously entrusted Joramco with several of its other aircraft, including its narrow-body Boeing 737s as well as its Embraer fleet. Following the success of this partnership over the past three years, TUI selected Joramco again as the preferred MRO for completing maintenance checks on the airline's Boeing 787 fleet.
Joramco also signed a new maintenance deal with MNG Airlines, the only private Turkish airline offering international cargo flight services to/from Europe, Middle East and Africa. Under the agreement, Joramco will perform C-checks and main landing gear and engine replacements on the carriers A300 and A330 cargo aircraft in the first quarter of 2023.
Furthermore, Joramco has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Spirit AeroSystems to explore cooperation in providing a wide range of repairs and services of composite and metallic aero structures to customers in the region. A team of engineers and experts from both companies will be formed to support the needs of operators and shops, and develop new repair processes as needed. “We are eager to begin structural repair MRO operations in the Middle East and look forward to working with Joramco,” said Kailash Krishnaswamy, Senior Vice President for Spirit AeroSystems Aftermarket Services. “Together, we will be able to offer better value to our customers in the region by leveraging our structural engineering expertise.”
