Air Serbia begins base maintenance at Turkish Technic
NEWS FLASH
Air Serbia has begun base maintenance of some of its aircraft at Turkish Airlines’ maintenance, repair and overhaul centre, Turkish Technic, in Istanbul. It comes as the two airlines continue to work towards reaching a joint venture agreement. The maintenance agreement was signed for four A320-family jets and one A330. Speaking at the New Air Gateway Conference in Ljubljana yesterday, Air Serbia’s CEO, Jiri Marek, said, “We currently have our difficulties with maintenance. We have five aircraft going to Turkish Technic. We started that in January. We are working on much closer cooperation with Turkish Airlines, especially with supply chain issues. If you are doing maintenance in Belgrade and some part is missing and you have to wait a couple of weeks or months to get it, a lot of these parts are being produced by Turkish Technics themselves and they also have certification in place. It was an easy decision to do most of the base maintenance with Turkish Technic if we want to have the fleet ready for the spring”. Air Serbia has up until now done almost all of its maintenance at Jat Tehnika in Belgrade. Turkish Airlines Technic’s CEO, Mikail Akbulut, noted, “We are happy to strengthen our cooperation with Air Serbia with new agreements. We have decades of experience in maintenance and repair operations of Airbus type aircraft. We are ready to meet Air Serbia's expectations with our quality and reliable maintenance and repair services”.
