German MRO Giant Expands Capacity Amid Global Demand
Lufthansa Technik posted double-digit revenue growth in the first half of 2026, driven by rising third-party customer business. The German MRO giant generated €4.4 billion in revenues, an 11% year-over-year increase, despite facing supply chain disruption, currency headwinds, and increasing volatility in MRO shop visit schedules. The company is expanding its capacity in Portugal and the Philippines, and expects full-year business performance to remain above 2025 levels, as reported by Aviation Week.
