He added that this agreement would also help reduce maintenance costs and minimize aircraft downtime.

The long-term maintenance deal includes regular inspections, repairs, and necessary upgrades for the APUs, ensuring they remain in optimal condition. This proactive approach to maintenance is expected to result in fewer disruptions and delays, providing a more reliable service for Air India's passengers.

By partnering with Honeywell, Air India aims to set new standards in fleet management and operational efficiency, reinforcing its commitment to safety, reliability, and customer satisfaction. This agreement underscores the airline's dedication to leveraging advanced technologies and expert services to enhance its overall performance and competitiveness in the aviation industry.
