Air Berlin Technik, a subsidiary of the Air Berlin Group, is upgrading its customer portfolio as it has just succeeded in winning new servicing contracts for three of its maintenance stations.
At Munich Airport, Air Berlin Technik will support the Spanish airline Iberia in line maintenance; the servicing facilities at Berlin-Tegel will be used by Estonian Air, and the Air Berlin Technik personnel in Nuremberg will provide technical support for Sun Express.
With the new Zurich facility, Air Berlin Technik has just commissioned its 15th maintenance station. The station will be in charge of the line maintenance that is being taken over from the technical service provider Jet Aviation.
Wolfgang Kurth, Chief Maintenance Officer of the Air Berlin Group, sees the new contracts as confirmation of the technical competence of Air Berlin Technik. "In recent years Air Berlin Technik has been able to continuously extend its range of maintenance services," he declared. "I am very pleased that our maintenance know-how is not only used by our own fleet but also appreciated by a constantly increasing number of other carriers."
