NDTV
Alliance Air, which was part of Air India prior to the full-service carrier going into private hands this January, currently connects 56 domestic destinations with 136 departures per day.
State-owned regional carrier Alliance Air has extended its global maintenance agreement with aircraft maker ATR for another five years, a statement said today.
Alliance Air, which was part of Air India prior to the full-service carrier going into private hands this January, currently connects 56 domestic destinations with 136 departures per day, operating a fleet of 21 aircraft comprising 20 ATR planes and one Dornier 228.
This year marks 20 years of partnership since the airline signed its first "ATR pay-by-hour maintenance contract" in December 2002, the regional plane maker said in the statement.
Through this package, the airline will continue to benefit from the repair, overhaul and pooling services of line replaceable units, along with the availability and maintenance of propellers and landing gears for its fleet of two ATR 42-600 and 18 ATR 72-600, the company said.
