Lufthansa Technik’s VIP and special-missions unit expects fleet rollovers in the Middle East and burgeoning business in Asia to keep its hangars in Hamburg, Germany, full at least until 2026.

“It’s a very positive time for the whole industry; business for 2023 and 2024 is increasing,” Lufthansa Technik v-p of sales Wieland Timm told AIN. “We have had very good recent years and our outlook through 2025 shows this continuing. Our main products—completions and maintenance—are in high demand.”
