AJW Group expands partnership with Sun PhuQuoc Airways
AJW Group signs PBH agreement with Sun PhuQuoc Airways to support the carrier's expanding A330 fleet
AJW Group has announced the signing of a six-year Power-by-the-Hour (PBH) support agreement with Sun PhuQuoc Airways (SPA). The agreement will support the carrier's expanding A330 fleet as it prepares to expand its medium and long-haul operations and international network across the Asia-Pacific region.
Sun PhuQuoc Airways has confirmed plans to introduce a fleet of A330 aircraft in phases, with the first two aircraft entering service this month. Additional aircraft will be inducted progressively as the airline expands its long-haul operations, with the fleet expected to reach up to 15 A330s by 2030.
The latest agreement builds upon an existing partnership established earlier this year, when AJW Group signed a long-term PBH and Main Base Kit (MBK) agreement to support SPA's A320 family. The expanded relationship, which now includes the airline's A330 fleet, reflects the airline's confidence in AJW's support capabilities as it enters the next phase of its growth strategy, the September 22 press release said.
The arrival of the A330 fleet will enable Sun PhuQuoc Airways to expand into long-haul markets and broaden its international route network.
Under the terms of the agreement, AJW Group will provide comprehensive PBH support for Sun PhuQuoc Airways' A330 fleet.
Scott Symington, Chief Commercial Officer at AJW Group, said, "We are delighted to expand our partnership with Sun PhuQuoc Airways as they embark on this exciting new phase of growth. Supporting the introduction of a new widebody fleet requires careful planning, reliable logistics, and strong technical expertise, and we are proud to bring all three to this programme. Having already established support for the airline's A320 family earlier this year, this agreement is a natural next step in our relationship. We look forward to working closely with the team as they establish and grow their long-haul operations."
Pham Dang Thanh, Deputy CEO at Sun PhuQuoc Airways, said, "The introduction of the A330 fleet marks a defining step in Sun PhuQuoc Airways’ journey to connect Phu Quoc and Vietnam with the world. As we scale our widebody operations, having the right technical partner is critical, not only to ensure reliable component support, but also to give us the confidence to expand our international network with pace and reliability. AJW Group’s proven track record and collaborative approach make them a strong partner for us as we enter this next chapter."
This agreement further strengthens AJW Group's presence in the Asia-Pacific region and reinforces its position as a trusted provider of flexible, long-term support solutions for airlines at every stage of growth, from start-up operations through to international network expansion
