MRO Americas: Pratt & Whitney and Delta Tech Ops sign deal to boost GTF MRO capacity by 30%
Pratt & Whitney and Delta Air Lines have announced an agreement to expand GTF overhaul capacity at Delta TechOps’ Atlanta facility over the next decade.
Under the agreement, the facility’s annual capacity will increase by more than 30% with the ability to overhaul up to 450 engines per year, making it one of the largest member facilities in the Pratt & Whitney GTF MRO network.
Delta TechOps joined the GTF MRO network in 2019 to provide maintenance services for PW1100G-JM and PW1500G engines for the Airbus A320neo and A220 aircraft families. The site inducted its first PW1100G-JM engine in 2020 and its first PW1500G engine in 2023, while also expanding its footprint to include a dedicated 155,000 sq ft GTF engine MRO facility that year.
In addition to GTF MRO work, Delta TechOps provides offload support for Pratt & Whitney mature commercial engines, including the PW2000 and the PW4000-94 engines.
Pratt & Whitney currently powers more than 320 aircraft in Delta’s fleet – more than 140 of which are either A220s or the A321neo.
The announcement was made during the MRO Americas 2025 event in Atlanta.
