Hawaiian Airlines has contracted SIA Engineering Company (SIAEC) to provide expanded airframe maintenance services for its Airbus A330-200 fleet.

SIAEC has existing airframe maintenance services agreements with Hawaiian Airlines for its A330 aircraft, covering heavy checks and paintings.

Under the new agreement, SIAEC will perform 12-year checks commencing in March 2022. The maintenance work will be carried out by SIAEC at its facility in Singapore.

“We are delighted to extend additional maintenance services to Hawaiian Airlines,” said SIAEC’s chief executive officer Ng Chin Hwee. “The extension is a testament to the successful relationship between the two companies and demonstrates Hawaiian Airlines’ vote of confidence for our airframe maintenance services. With our strong technical expertise and vast maintenance experience, we are well positioned to provide quality services and engineering support for the airline’s A330 fleet.”

Hawaiian Airlines’ senior vice president, technical operations Jim Landers commented: “This agreement is a testament to the demonstrated performance of SIAEC on work performed to date on our A330 fleet. In a maintenance provider, we expect and rely on timeliness, quality and value. SIAEC has not only delivered on all three but additionally demonstrated flexibility and responsiveness through the challenges of the Covid turmoil. We are confident in our choice of SIAEC as a long-term provider and partner.”
