New agreements signed at MRO Europe for Maintenance and Landing Gear 
services

At MRO Europe in Amsterdam, SmartLynx Airlines, the leading ACMI 
(Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance), cargo, and charter 
services provider, and Lufthansa Technik AG have signed new 
multiple-year agreements extending their partnership. The contracts 
include Maintenance services for the Airbus A320 family and Landing 
Gear services for the Airbus A320, A321 and A330 fleets.

Based on the experience of their existing partnership, SmartLynx 
Airlines has entrusted Lufthansa Technik with more than 25 C-Checks 
for its A320 family aircraft, which will be carried out from November
within the MRO experts' base maintenance network in Europe. As of 
October, SmartLynx will be provided with comprehensive landing gear 
services, including overhauls for Airbus A320, A321 and A330 
aircraft, exchange landing gears and potential loans depending on 
individual needs.

Since May 2023, Lufthansa Technik provides SmartLynx with a Total 
Component Support (TCS) for their entire fleet, covering more than 60
Airbus A320, A330 and Boeing 737MAX aircraft. Zygimantas Surintas, 
CEO of SmartLynx Airlines, stated: "The new agreements underline once
again our focus on excellence and reliability for our customers. In 
order to further optimize our performance, Lufthansa Technik has 
proven its ability to be a reliable and innovative partner for us to

pride and demonstrates that we are the leading provider of 
individual, excellent service and support for the highest performance
