Finnair Signs Ten-year Global Maintenance Agreement with ATR

: May 28, 2020 - : 3:02 am

ATR and the Finnish airline Finnair have signed a ten-year Global Maintenance Agreement (GMA)

Finnair and Nordic Regional Airlines (NoRRA), which operates Finnair’s regional ATR traffic, will benefit from a dedicated support from ATR, which will help the airline better anticipate maintenance costs while enhancing the dispatch reliability of its fleet of 12 ATR 72-500.

This pay-by-the-hour contract covers the repair, overhaul and pooling services of Line Replaceable Units, along with their door-to-door delivery and an on-site leased stock of spare parts. The airline will also benefit from blades maintenance and availability, and maintenance recommendations based on ATR’s expertise.

“Our ATR flights form a key part of our feeder traffic to our Helsinki hub, and as a large share of our customers are transfer customers, they have strong expectations in terms of punctuality and reliability,” said Juha Ojala, Vice President Technical Operations of Finnair. “This Global Maintenance Agreement is another step further in our relationship with ATR and ensures we benefit from the most suitable services, so that we can in turn provide our customers with a reliable and punctual travel experience.”

“Finnair is new to our GMA programme but they have been part of the ATR family from the very beginning, as they took delivery of their first ATR aircraft, MSN 006, in 1986,” said Stefano Bortoli, Chief Executive Officer of ATR. “During the challenging times we are currently living, the confidence from a valued customer is the best tribute they can offer to the quality and economics of our products and services.”
