GetJet Airlines plans to develop a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility at Vilnius International Airport, the company said on March 26, 2025. The Lithuanian ACMI company said it will invest €10 million in the project between 2025 and 2028, adding that the facility will strengthen its in-house capabilities.
“Establishing our own MRO facility marks a significant step in expanding our ability to support our fleet independently, ensuring unmatched operational flexibility,” said GetJet Airlines CEO Inga Duglas. “Currently, we can mobilise within 1.5 hours of request confirmation and conduct over 500 ad hoc operations annually… this investment further strengthens our self-sufficiency and enhances operational reliability for our clients.”
The company had secured a long-term land lease at the airport through an auction organised by Lithuanian Airports and was granted the rights to a 4,664 square metre plot for a 40-year period.
GetJet Aviation Holdings CEO Darius Viltrakis commented: “Owning our own hangar and reducing dependence on third-party MRO providers is a major competitive advantage. It allows us to maintain our fleet more effectively, improve operational flexibility, and adapt swiftly to growing industry demand.”
The facility is expected to create around 50 new jobs.
