Five year Total Component Support (TCS®)    
Contract covers 30 aircraft  

Czech airline Smartwings and Lufthansa Technik have signed a
five-year comprehensive Total Component Support (TCS®) contract
covering repair and overhaul of components for the airline's fleet of
30 Boeing 737NG aircraft. Support for the aircraft has already
started.

Ludek Stasek, Technical Director of Smartwings, says: "We are very
pleased that Lufthansa Technik supports us in component support for
our 737 NG fleet. We have worked together with Lufthansa Technik
already in the past and are looking forward to further deepening this
successful cooperation."

"We are happy to continue our partnership with Smartwings by
supporting its 737 NG fleet. By additionally supporting these
aircraft, Lufthansa Technik can further enhance the supply and
logistics to ensure optimal material availability for Smartwings'
overall fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft." says Ifezue Bertold Mordi,
Senior Sales Executive of Lufthansa Technik.

With the Total Component Support TCS® agreement, Smartwings benefits
from an individual supply concept that enables short and rapid
transport paths. The new contract includes component MRO services and
pool access as well as component delivery to selected international
airports within Europe.

Lufthansa Technik already provides comprehensive engine services for
Smartwings' CFM56-7B powered Boeing 737NG-fleet as well as Total
Components Support services for Smartwings' B737 MAX 8 aircraft.
