Diehl Aviation has announced that the company has signed an agreement to support the next phase of the Emirates A380 retrofit programme.
Diehl Aviation opened a new EASA Part 21G-approved workshop in the Dubai Airport Freezone in early 2025 and says the setup enables local production, rework and delivery of cabin components. It also allows for shorter lead times and increased flexibility for ongoing programmes such as Emirates’ A380 retrofit, providing on-site expertise with local manufacturing, assembling and logistical support.
Harald Mehring, Chief Customer Officer at Diehl Aviation said: “Being awarded the next phase of the Emirates A380 retrofit is a strong vote of confidence and an important milestone for Diehl Aviation.
“With our dedicated team and our new setup in the Dubai Airport Freezone, we are ideally positioned to support Emirates locally. This next phase underscores our commitment to long-term partnerships, operational excellence, and customer proximity in one of the world’s most dynamic aviation markets.”
