MRO solutions company FL Technics is expanding its operations in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with a new line maintenance station at Dubai World Central (DWC)/Al Maktoum International Airport.
With a growing number of airlines and freighter operations transitioning from Dubai International Airport (DXB) to DWC, FL Technics has decided to open the new line maintenance station to support the growing demand for MRO services.
According to the Dubai Government, the airport plans to ultimately increase its cargo capacity to 12 million tonnes per year within the next decade.
Arif Alameri, FL Technics’ managing director, said: “All freighters have been relocated from DXB to DWC due to the predominance of cargo traffic. In response, FL Technics is strategically positioning itself in the area to provide the necessary technical support to airlines.
“This expansion of operations represents a significant opportunity for us to serve a more extensive clientele within the UAE. FL Technics is ready to meet the challenges and opportunities presented by the UAE’s evolving aviation industry.”
In addition to maintaining the fleet for Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, FL Technics has signed a contract with another UAE-based airline for services at AUH and DWC, supporting its fleet and providing a range of maintenance services.
FL Technics’ current capabilities across UAE include maintenance for Boeing B737 and Airbus A320 family aircraft.
The new line maintenance station at DWC is a part of FL Technics’ already existing operations in DXB and AUH. The company is working closely with airlines operating in DWC to increase partnerships in the region.
