AFI KLM E&M announced a new partnership with SalamAir, Oman’s low-cost carrier. This newly signed contract will provide quick-turn support for SalamAir’s LEAP-1A engines, starting with three engines immediately, and with additional units expected as SalamAir’s fleet continues to expand.

“This contract is not just a testament to the trust our customers place in us—it demonstrates the unmatched value of our quick-turn expertise and our ability to tailor flexible solutions for rapidly growing airlines,” said Pierre Teboul, SVP Commercial at Air France-KLM Engineering & Maintenance.

“As we scale up our operations and fleet, we need a maintenance partner that combines technical excellence with flexibility and responsiveness. AFI KLM E&M brings that, and more,” said Adrian Hamilton-Manns, CEO of SalamAir.
