CebuPac taps HK firm for Airbus maintenance
MANILA, Philippines - Publicly-listed Cebu Air Inc. (Cebu Pacific) has tapped one of the world’s largest aeronautical engineering groups based in Hong Kong to maintain its fleet of Airbus aircraft as it gears for its long-haul operations in the second half of the year.
Cebu Pacific president and chief executive officer Lance Gokongwei said in a statement that the airline has appointed Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company Ltd. (Haeco) as the provider of engineering services for its fleet of up to eight Airbus A330-300 aircraft.
“In choosing Haeco, Cebu Pacific can tap into the expertise that Haeco has built up with the A330. The efficiencies resulting from the sharing of parts inventories and Haeco’s strong technical capabilities will assist the airline in providing low fares on long-haul routes,†Gokongwei stressed.
Under the partnership, the Haeco group would provide Inventory Technical Management (ITM) and Fleet Technical Management (FTM) services for Cebu Pacific’s wide-body fleet of A330-300 aircraft.
