Lufthansa Technik AG has entered into a new long-term agreement with Taiwan-based low-cost carrier Tigerair Taiwan. According to the new contract, the Hamburg-based maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) provider is now responsible for providing maintenance services including LRU (line-replaceable unit) services for the Auxiliary Power Units (APU) of Tigerair Taiwan’s growing A320 fleet. The long-term contract covers maintenance for Tigerair Taiwans APUs, the overhaul of APU components as well as pooling supply of APU components via Lufthansa Technik’s warehouse in Singapore. Based at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, Tigerair Taiwan started operations in 2014 as the country’s first low-cost airline.
