The maintenance will ensure optimal performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency of the Trent 7000 engines powering KAC’s fleet of A330neos.

The service agreement will use advanced technology to monitor the health and performance of engines in real-time, which will allow Kuwait Airways to effectively have proactive maintenance and minimise flight disruptions. 

Chairman of Kuwait Airways, Captain Ali Al-Dukhan, said:  “We are glad to be signing the Rolls-Royce TotalCare service agreement which will help us reach our strategic objectives of optimising our engine operations, increase our fuel efficiencies, and enhancing the maintenance planning across our fleet. This will not only lead to lowering our costs and increasing our productivity but will also have a positive effect on our passengers as we will be able to better predict and prevent disruptions to our operations.”

Al-Dukhan added: “This partnership will give us the opportunity to access Rolls-Royce TotalCare services so we may promptly attend to our needs. By signing the Rolls-Royce TotalCare agreement, we can focus our internal resources and expertise on our core operations, such as flight operations and passenger services. This allows us to allocate our resources efficiently and concentrate on providing superior travel experience for our passengers.”

Rob Watson, President Civil Aerospace from Rolls-Royce added, “We have a long-standing relationship with Kuwait Airways supporting their Trent 700 powered A330 fleet. Today takes that relationship one step further as we sign this new agreement for our TotalCare services package for their new fleet of Trent 7000 powered A330neos. We look forward to supporting Kuwait Airways in their continued expansion and in the delivery of their world-class passenger experience by providing them with predictability and certainty across their operation.”
