Both Singapore Airlines and All Nippon Airways (ANA) have used the backdrop of Singapore Airshow 2026 to extend service contracts with RTX’s Collins Aerospace.
On February 3, 2026, Collins Aerospace confirmed that both airlines had extended FlightSense contracts, a full lifecycle maintenance support program.
Singapore Airlines signed to cover its Boeing 777 fleet for five additional years. The 777 fleet consists of 27 aircraft, including five Boeing 777F aircraft that have been added to the program.
Singapore Airlines first adopted FlightSense in 2008 with Collins contracted to deliver maintenance support solutions for the airline’s Boeing 777 operations.
“Collins Aerospace has supported Singapore Airlines over the long term, demonstrating a consistent focus on trust, innovation, and reliability,” said Ryan Hudson, Vice President of Aftermarket for Collins Aerospace’s Power and Controls unit. “This ongoing commitment highlights Collins Aerospace’s dedication to delivering tailored service solutions that enhance operational efficiency and performance while evolving to meet the changing needs of the industry.”
According to Collins, FlightSense is tailored to support airlines’ “specific operational requirements, enabling improved operational performance”.
The FlightSense program also integrates Collins’ Ascentia platform for “advanced prognostics and health management software to provide customizable levels of support”.
All Nippon Airways renews FlightSense and MRO contracts
On February 3, 2026, All Nippon Airways also signed two separate FlightSense renewal agreements with Collins Aerospace.
The first is a five-year renewal for on-site support for the airline’s Boeing fleet of 737NG/MAX, 767, 777, 787 aircraft as well as its De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400s.
The cost-per-flight hour agreement has been in place since 2001 and provides “guaranteed component availability, reduced downtime and cost predictability through a fixed-rate service model”.
Under the agreement, Collins will deliver “predictive, reliability-based maintenance support to ensure optimal performance of environmental, electrical, and engine control systems”.
“ANA is delighted to reaffirm our long-standing strategic relationship with Collins Aerospace,” said Yukifumi Ueda, Vice President and General Manager, Engine, Component and Supply Chain at All Nippon Airways. “Since 2001, this collaboration has been a cornerstone of the maintenance excellence at ANA Component Technics, an ANA group facility in Nagasaki. This renewal further strengthens our operational resilience, allowing us to ensure the highest standards of safety and reliability for our customers.”
Additionally, ANA has signed a three-year extension to the repair agreement that has existed with Collins since 2017 for MRO repair services on accessories for its Rolls-Royce Trent 1000-powered Boeing 787 Dreamliners.
Accessories include engine electronic controllers, hydromechanical units, fuel pump systems and variable stator vane actuators.
“We believe the signing of this highly significant agreement marks an exciting new chapter for ANA and Collins,” added Iwao Takeshita, Vice President, Global Supplier Relations and Planning, All Nippon Airways.
