Minimize Downtime and Maximize your Airline

As an aircraft fleet manager for a commercial airline or dedicated freight service, you know all too well that aircraft only generate revenue when flying. Any downtime is an immediate impact to your bottom line, whether it is an aircraft-on-ground (AOG) situation, unplanned repairs, scheduled maintenance, mandated service bulletins, or even a delayed gate turn at an airport. Minimizing and managing that downtime is critical to protecting revenue and maximizing customer confidence in your airline’s brand.

Your Aviation
Services Partner

As the most expensive component on your aircraft, jet engines present a special challenge in terms of required maintenance due to many life-limited parts and a general reduction in power and efficiency over time. Since you cannot afford for the airframe to sit idle while the engines are maintained, a lease or purchase of new ones can keep your aircraft in service. 

What you need is an aviation services partner with a fully integrated portfolio of products, services, and aircraft financing to meet the demanding challenges of fleet management and maintenance.

That Partner is Willis.

You deserve an Aviation Services Partner to keep your aircraft flying and operational.

We are a pioneer in the aviation services industry – and that’s no exaggeration. We were the first to lease jet engines to commercial operators and our record of innovation continues today.
 
For example, with ConstantAccess™, customers can lease jet engines they need, when they need them. Customers have preferred access, on demand, to our worldwide portfolio of engines with availability guaranteed – enabling you to focus on flying.
 
With ConstantThrust®, we cover the cost and risk of jet engine maintenance by replacing a removed engine with a serviceable engine from our assets - saving airline customers the significant time, money, and risk associated with engine heavy maintenance.
"With innovative solutions such as Willis Lease’s Revolving Credit Lease and ConstantAccessTM programs supporting the launch of our B737MAX operations, we are confident going forward that we have partnered with the industry leader that delivers for its customers.”
