'The combination of the Trent 700 and the TotalCare support package delivers significant reliability and performance benefits to enhance their operation,' stated Metin Oktay, Rolls-Royce Civil Aerospace Vice President, Africa.
'Our extension of TotalCare is a reflection of the value we place on the service, which allows us to predict and fully manage costs,' added Alaa Ashour, Chairman and CEO of Egyptair.
