Thales and Malaysia Airlines have signed a long-term services agreement for Thales avionics products onboard the Airline’s A330neo fleet. Through this service agreement, Thales will manage all repairs for its avionics products, as well as provide spares availability and replenishment with stock located in Malaysia Airlines’ main hub and Thales’ Asia-Pacific repair hub in Singapore. This enables the airline to maintain their aircraft at the highest level of performance, while optimizing fleet reliability.
This maintenance repair and overhaul contract, with Thales as the original equipment manufacturer having supplied its Flight Management and Surveillance systems in 2024, ensures that Malaysia Airlines has high-quality premium repair services to support fleet operational efficiency and drive maintenance cost-effectiveness. Thales’s Aviation Global Services is a one-stop shop for all airline customers and partners, delivering 24/7 Aircraft on Ground support with locations around the world. From maintenance and repairs to technical support, training, parts trading and line maintenance, AGS supports airlines with comprehensive solutions. Thales has developed a complete range of maintenance services and spares management, such as Repair by the Hour and asset availability programs aimed at providing customers with cost-efficient service.
Thales continues to build on the enduring relationship with Malaysia Airlines to support the airline’s focus on hospitality and quality. Earlier this year, Malaysia Airlines chose Thales’s Flight Management and surveillance systems for these same A330neo aircraft.
Thomas Got, Vice President of Aviation Global Services, Thales Avionics commented: "Thales is proud to announce this new agreement with Malaysia Airlines that demonstrates our strong partnership and underscores our shared commitment to operational excellence. We thank Malaysia Airlines for their trust. Our deep expertise in avionics repair and support makes Thales a leading MRO in Asia with innovative and premium support services.”
