IndiGo and CFM International have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) covering more than 1,000 LEAP-1A engines to power 510 Airbus A320neo family aircraft.
The MOU also includes support from CFM International for IndiGo’s future establishment of engine MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul) facilities. A long-term materials services agreement, including the supply of spare parts, will support IndiGo’s rapidly growing fleet.
IndiGo CEO Willie Walsh commented, “As IndiGo embarks on its next phase of growth toward becoming a truly global airline, we are pleased to expand our long-term partnership with CFM International for the engines that will power future deliveries of our Airbus A320/A321neo family aircraft. CFM has been a trusted partner supporting our growth journey since 2016.”
India is CFM International’s third-largest market. Five Indian airlines operate fleets of more than 400 aircraft powered by LEAP engines, and orders have been placed for more than 2,000 engines. This is the largest single order for LEAP engines to date.
