Under the contract, SIAEC will provide VietJet Air’s fleet of Airbus A320s with ITM services including maintenance, component repair and warehousing.

These services will help ensure the safe operation of the fleet, save maintenance costs and make effective use of available warehouses for both sides.

The agreement, signed at the ongoing Singapore Airshow 2012, is in line with the VietJet Air’s strategy to modernize and improve the professionalism of its members.

VietJet Air Deputy Director General, Priram Singh, said that the carrier decided to cooperate with SIAE, one of the most experienced and prestigious partners in the world, to meet the strict requirements for the operation and maintenance of its Airbus fleet in the future. The airline aims to provide its passengers with low cost, friendly, punctual and convenient flights in accordance with international norms.

Priram added that the contract marked a turning point in the airline’s plan to expand its air routes to other Asian countries in 2012.

An SIAEC representative said that with its wide network of warehouses and technical staff across the globe, it can provide VietJet Air with reliable technical support and diverse warehousing components to match the airline’s future plans.
