Is Skywest A320 going for heavy maintenance soon ?
& who would do it & how long would it take ?
What would they use, when the A320is out of action ? Get one from JQ ? or Who ? |

Well it spent a year at JH before it entered service so surely it's not ready for a C check.
It's not as easy as "getting one from JQ", they would probaly just sub it with a f100. Airlines dont usually lend other carriers their aircraft, well unless you are Qantas of course... |

Lukas, if you have aircraft and crew available and another airline is in the market for a short term lease then why not? Qantas has provided maintenance cover for a some pacific island airlines from time to time, though not sure if recently. Though with Skywest I suspect your right that they would probably sub a smaller aircraft.

When was the last time Jetstar leased one of their aircraft to another carrier for a few weeks? Thats right, never.

Air Pacific had a short term lease of a United 747-400 last year, when one of the FJ 747-400's was in heavy maintenance in Singapore.

Is the 2nd A320 due soon? That may help if the 1st goes in for a C check.

I think Qantas (well Jetconnect anyway) recently covered the heavy check for Air Vanuatu as well.
