CMA CGM selects AFI KLM to support Boeing 777Fs

CMA CGM Air Cargo selects Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance (AFI KLM E&M) to provide engine and component support for the two Boeing 777 freighters recently added to its all-cargo fleet. “The two new aircraft were delivered to the transporter on May 31 and 7 June 7, 2022 respectively, and will be used to fly international routes out of CMA CGM Air Cargo’s base at Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport. As a recognised specialist in A330 maintenance, AFI KLM E&M will also maintain the components of CMA CGM Air Cargo’s A330F fleet,” stated an official release. Capitalising on its airline-MRO experience in maintaining one of the world’s largest 777 fleet on behalf of its parent companies Air France and KLM, AFI KLM E&M will provide comprehensive component support for both aircraft as part of a long-term flight-hour contract that includes repairs and access to its spare parts pool set up at CDG, the release added.
