Lufthansa Technik and Thailand's Nok Air expand their cooperation

Lufthansa Technik and the Thai carrier Nok Air are expanding their
cooperation even further. A good two years ago, the Hamburg-based MRO
provider Lufthansa Technik took over complete supply for Nok Air.
Now, in addition to the 14 Boeing 737NG aircraft it currently looks
after, the company will provide technical support for the further
growth of the airline’s modern fleet and supply for all of the
carrier’s 737NGs (up to 30) as part of a Total Technical Support
(TTS®) contract. Nok Air already serves more destinations in Thailand
than any other airline. With the fleet growth the airline envisages,
it will rigorously realize its growth targets in Southeast Asia.

The spectrum of services governed by the contract includes the supply
of all components and consumables, engine and thrust reverser
overhauls, and services for landing gear and brakes. For this
purpose, Lufthansa Technik has set up a material warehouse at the
airline’s hub at Don Mueang International Airport in Bangkok, and is
supporting the carrier’s growing fleet with technical fleet
management on site.

“We are very pleased to continue working with our partner Nok Air to
realize its ambitious plans for growth by supporting this successful
airline with technical services now and in the future. Our
partnership with Nok Air has a long-term orientation,” says Robin
Johansson, Lufthansa Technik’s Director Sales for South East Asia and
Australia.
