The airline commented on its LinkedIn page, ‘Our key to success in aerospace logistics is getting the right part to the right place at the right time.

As per an article published in The STAT Trade Times, the unpredicted pandemic has hit the roadblocks forcing most of the countries to close their borders and airlines to ground their aircraft, bringing adverse impacts on the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) business.
Such gradual movements are expected to bring the sector back on track.
