ATR and Fly91 Sign Eight-Year Global Maintenance Agreement

India-based regional carrier  Fly91 has signed an eight‑year Global Maintenance Agreement (GMA) with ATR for it’s fleet of turboprop aircraft.

Fly91 currently operates four ATR 72‑600s, with two more arriving in early 2026, and the extended agreement is designed to support this next phase of growth as the airline expands its fleet.

As an existing GMA client since its formation in 2024, and with aircraft utilisation exceeding 2,500 flight hours per year, the airline has decided to update the scope of its agreement to secure long‑term cost visibility and operational performance as its fleet expands.

Stefano Marazzani, Senior Vice President Customer Support and Services of ATR , added: “The Global Maintenance Agreement delivers this value consistently, while also offering an ambitious airline like Fly91 the crucial benefit of cost visibility and control needed to scale operations smoothly.
