Saudi low-cost airline flyadeal has signed a long-term agreement with Safran Nacelles at MRO Middle East 2024 in Dubai. The agreement offers comprehensive nacelle support for flyadeal’s Airbus A320neo family fleet, powered by CFM International’s LEAP-1A engines.
flyadeal will also benefit from Safran Nacelles’ maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) solutions at the AMES repair station in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Steven Greenway, CEO of flyadeal, said, “Our partnership with Safran Nacelles highlights flyadeal’s commitment to providing our passengers with safe and reliable travel experiences. With full pool access to Safran Nacelles’ equipment, we are confident in our ability to address any maintenance issues that may arise, ensuring minimal disruptions to our services.”
Vincent Caro, CEO of Safran Nacelles, commented: “We are very proud to be flyadeal’s partner for their A320neo fleet. As being the A320neo full nacelle designer, our teams are ensuring to our customer the highest levels of nacelle availability for its flight operations.”
The Jeddah-based airline ordered 65 A320neo family aircraft at the Paris Air Show in 2019 and took delivery of its first A320neo in 2021. The low-fare carrier currently has 20 A320neo aircraft in service.
