LONDON (Alliance News) - Aerospace, defence and satellite technology company Cobham PLC on Monday said it has secured a ten-year, AUD1.2 billion contract to provide airline services to Australian airline QantasLink.
The deal will see Cobham continue to provide support to QantasLink's fleet of 20 Boeing 717 aircraft through to the end of 2026, under a partnership which started in 1991.
QantasLink is the Australian regional brand of Qantas Airways Ltd, the Australian flag carrier.
"Qantas is a very important and long-term customer for Cobham, and this is a significant contract extension, providing a valuable contribution and scale to our overall commercial passenger flying operations in Australia through 2026," said Peter Nottage, Cobham Aviation Services president.
