New contract strengthens operational performance and reinforces longstanding partnership
Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance (AFI KLM E&M) and Air Europa are pleased to announce the signing of a new long-term contract for comprehensive maintenance support of Air Europa’s Boeing 787 aircraft. This agreement, effective from March 1st, 2024, highlights AFI KLM E&M’s commitment to delivering strong value and service excellence. It reinforces the longstanding relationship between the two companies, that extends from Maintenance to the passenger activity through code-share agreements and being members of SkyTeam alliance.
Strengthening Ties and Expanding Footprint
The new contract is a significant milestone, underscoring AFI KLM E&M's reliability and extensive expertise in supporting the Spanish airline’s flagship aircraft.

This new contract with Air Europa further solidifies AFI KLM E&M's position as a leading maintenance provider in the region.
