Lufthansa Technik to provide Hawaiian Airlines with comprehensive  component support

– Seven-year contract regarding the supply of spare parts for A330ceo
and A321neo fleets
– Contract gives the airline the flexible option to extend the 
cooperation by several years

Lufthansa Technik and Hawaiian Airlines have signed a comprehensive 
Total Component Support (TCS) contract covering the Honolulu-based 
airline’s entire Airbus A330ceo and A321neo fleets. In total, the new
agreement encompasses parts pooling support for up to 52 aircraft 
over the next seven years. It moreover gives Hawaiian Airlines the 
flexible option to further extend the cooperation by several 
additional years.

The new agreement is Hawaiian Airlines’ first Lufthansa Technik TCS 
contract. It covers a total of 18 Airbus A321neo and 24 Airbus 
A330ceo aircraft in passenger configuration. The contract also covers
ten converted Airbus A330-300 Passenger-to-Freighter aircraft which 
Hawaiian Airlines will operate on behalf of e-commerce giant Amazon 
and its Amazon Air division. 

For each aircraft, Lufthansa Technik will perform component 
maintenance, provide access to the company’s component pool and 
logistics services, and establish home base stocks at several 
Hawaiian Airlines maintenance bases including Honolulu’s Daniel K. 
Inouye International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport, and 
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. 

“When we set out to find a maintenance provider for components 
installed on our Airbus fleet, we looked for an established MRO 
organization that shared our focus to safely deliver reliable 
aircraft and components to the operation on-time and at a competitive
price,” said Jim Landers, Hawaiian Airlines’ Senior Vice President of
Technical Operations: “We believe we found that partner with 
Lufthansa Technik, and we look forward to their support of our Airbus
fleet in the years to come.” 

“We are thrilled to enhance our existing partnership with Hawaiian 
Airlines with this component support that will foster our 
long-lasting relationship. Through improved material supply and 
logistics, our Total Component Support guarantees optimal 
availability for Hawaiian Airlines’ passenger and growing freighter 
Airbus fleets,” said Georgios Ouzounidis, Vice President Corporate 
Sales Americas at Lufthansa Technik. 

With this TCS agreement, Hawaiian Airlines now benefits from an 
individual supply concept that enables short and rapid transport 
paths. The airline also selected Lufthansa Technik for its Aircraft 
Production Inspection Program (APIP) services, which includes the ten
aforementioned A330 passenger-to-freighter conversions. The newly 
signed agreement further extends Lufthansa Technik’s growth in 
providing MRO services for Airbus aircraft in the United States.
