SpiceJet Aviation partners with FTAI Aviation

On 8 June 2023 SpiceJet said it will partner with FTAI Aviation, a leading aftermarket provider of engine services, to reduce maintenance expenses and aircraft downtime.

The New York stock exchange listed FTAI Aviation will provide SpiceJet with up to 20 engines for lease, inclusive of maintenance services, the Guurgam-based airline.

By leveraging FTAI Aviation's engine expertise, SpiceJet will have access to a pipeline of available engines which eliminates the need for frequent shop visits.

According to the company, the revitalisation programme will reduce maintenance expenses and minimise aircraft downtime, enhancing the airline's overall performance.

The first engines will be used to support the reactivation of SpiceJet's aircraft fleet over the next two-three months and will be critical for service on new routes.

The partnership with FTAI Aviation is a step in that direction that would ensure that the fleet is up and running at all times without worries about engines or their maintenance.

On 7 June, SpiceJet commenced Haj operations by operating special flights from Bhopal, Gaya, Vijayawada, Aurangabad and Srinagar.

The airline company has inducted two wide-body A340 aircraft for its Haj operations. SpiceJet will operate these special flights to Jeddah between 7 June and 22 June. Return flights from Medina are also scheduled from 17 July to 2 August.

The new flights and strategic partnership with FTAI aviation might bring SpiceJet share price out of its downward trajectory.

SpiceJet share price has fallen by more than 9% in the last month. Over the past six months, the company's shares have declined by more than 30%. The stock is also down more than 28% in 2023.
