Spirit Airlines in LHT deal

Spirit Airlines and Lufthansa Technik AG have signed an exclusive four-year Airframe components contract for 28 A320s family with options for additional aircraft. Charles Rue, Vice President Supply Chain of Spirit Airlines, points out: "Lufthansa Technik was able to tailor its services exactly to Spirit's needs and requirements in order for us to continue our high utilization operation while also keeping costs at a minimum, which is of most importance for a growing carrier such as Spirit Airlines. The support agreement for the thrust reverser will extend our already existing business relationship." Lufthansa Technik will support Spirit Airlines at Fort Lauderdale International Airport, in addition to its thrust reverser facilities in Sun Valley, California, Hamburg, Germany, and Shenzhen, China.
