Finnair Ojy (FIA1S.HE) said Wednesday it has awarded Rolls-Royce
PLC (RR.LN) a long-term contract to service the engines on its new
Airbus A350 XWB aircraft.
Rolls-Royce's Trent XWB engines are used exclusively for the
Airbus A350 XWB and the agreement brings Finnair's entire A350 XWB
fleet under Rolls Royce's service package.
Finnair said it has firm orders for 19 A350 XWB aircraft, the
first four of which are expected to arrive in the fleet in the
second half of this year, with another seven in 2016 and 2017. The
complete order will be fulfilled by 2023.
