HAECO has announced the extension of its base maintenance contract with Emirates for its A380 aircraft through 2030. Under this extended agreement, HAECO will continue to provide heavy maintenance services, including 6Y, 9Y and 12Y checks, at its state-of-the-art facility in Xiamen.

The base maintenance partnership between HAECO and Emirates began in 2024 with the induction of Emirates’ first A380 for its 6Y check in Xiamen. This September, HAECO successfully completed its first 12Y check of an A380 for Emirates on schedule, highlighting HAECO’s technical expertise, and ability to meet the highest industry standards.

Gerald Steinhoff, Chief Commercial Officer of HAECO, said, “We are delighted to continue delivering industry-leading base maintenance services to Emirates, the world’s largest international airline operating the world’s largest A380 fleet. This long-term contract extension underscores the exceptional quality of our service and our proven ability to meet the operational demands of top-tier customers, including those in the Middle East.”
