AIR ONE establishes new MRO company based in Dubai

AIR ONE International Holdings has established AIR ONE Technics, a UAE-based company that will provide line maintenance and airworthiness management services for the group’s fleet.

Located at Mohammed bin Rashid (MBR) Aerospace Hub, Dubai South, AIR ONE Technics will support the group’s wider technical operations across the UAE.

The new company will be led by Ayrat Gilmutdinov as CEO and Alex John as director of supply chain and logistics.

AIR ONE describes Gilmutdinov as a “results-oriented aviation leader” with extensive experience in strategic and operational roles and a strong focus on innovation, process optimisation, and data-driven decision-making.

John has over 35 years’ expertise in aviation materials and logistics management across major Middle Eastern carriers, with a track record in building efficient, compliant, and technology-driven supply chain systems.

Tahnoon Saif, CEO of Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub, said the launch of AIR ONE Technics at MBR Aerospace Hub underscores the attractiveness of Dubai South as a destination for specialised aviation investments.

“We remain committed to enabling companies with advanced capabilities to grow and thrive, contributing to the development of a robust, sustainable, and future-ready aviation sector in the UAE,” he said.

AIR ONE International Holdings is a global network of cargo airlines and aviation companies offering flexible airfreight capacity through long-term charters, ACMI solutions, and scheduled services.

The group manages the commercial activities of affiliated airlines AeroTransCargo SRL (Moldova), RomCargo Airlines (Romania), and One Air (United Kingdom).

The group’s combined fleet consists of 11 Boeing 747-400 freighters and now two 777Fs.
