Lufthansa Technik: Component support for long-range fleet of Taiwan-based EVA Air

Lufthansa Technik AG has further extended its cooperation with
Taiwan-based airline EVA Air and it’s subsidiary EGAT. According to
the new contract, the Hamburg-based maintenance, repair and overhaul
provider is now also being commissioned to provide component support
for the Boeing 777-300ER fleet as well as the Airbus A330 aircraft
the Star Alliance member EVA Air has ordered.

Material is to be supplied for more than 30 Boeing 777-300ER aircraft
by Lufthansa Technik at the Singapore location. The long-term
contract covers the overhaul of components as well as engineering
services in addition to the material warehouse and pool. Services for
the Airbus A330 fleet were extended and now also include the newly
ordered A330-300s. These aircraft will also be supported out of
Singapore.

“We are very pleased about this extended cooperation with our
long-time partner EVA Air. It also illustrates that our material pool
in Singapore is well positioned for the Asian market,” says Dr.
Johannes Bussmann, Member of the Executive Board of Lufthansa
Technik.

EVA Air has been a customer of Lufthansa Technik for more than ten
years, with support also being provided since 2014 for the A321
aircraft of the renowned Taiwan-based airline in addition to the
Airbus A330 and Boeing 747 fleet. With this latest contract, EVA Air
has entrusted the supply of components for the majority of its fleet
to Lufthansa Technik.

Lufthansa Technik has significantly expanded the material pool in
Singapore in recent years in order to be able to supply the growing
number of customers in Asia in their region quickly and reliably.

With its modern fleet, EVA Air serves more than 65 destinations in
Asia, China, North America, Oceania and Europe.
