During the Dubai Air Show, Saudia Technic and Airbus Helicopters have signed a memorandum of agreement for the creation of an authorized service center in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to support the civil helicopters in operation in the region.

“The signing of this agreement testifies our dedication to continuously improve our customers’ satisfaction in the Middle East but also globally,” said Olivier Michalon, Executive Vice President of Global Business at Airbus Helicopters. “Saudia Technic is a proven maintenance provider and I look forward to exploring new opportunities to strengthen our collaboration with them in the future.”

Capt. Fahd Cynndy, CEO of Saudia Technic, highlighted the significance of this collaboration with Airbus Helicopters. “This is not just an agreement but a milestone that aligns perfectly with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 and the national aviation strategy. Saudia Technic is not only expanding its capabilities but is also setting new benchmarks in the MRO sector,” remarked Capt. Cynndy.

This strategic agreement marks a pivotal moment for Saudia Technic, reinforcing its commitment to delivering top-tier helicopter maintenance services and solidifying its leadership in the MRO landscape.
