Emirates to Conduct Rolls-Royce Engine MRO on Own A380 Fleet

Emirates will perform Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) for the Trent 900 engines powering its own A380 fleet from 2027. This is according to a Memorandum of Understanding signed between Emirates and Rolls-Royce at the Dubai Airshow 2025.

Emirates has also extended the TotalCare service agreement with Rolls-Royce for its A380s into the 2040s. Emirates will build a new facility with the first induction forecast from 2027.

Emirates will complete fan case repairs at the facility, and Rolls-Royce will maintain module repair capability within the global network.

Emirates is the largest operator of the Airbus A380, the world’s largest commercial aircraft in service, with 116 of these double-decked aircraft in its fleet.

The Emirates A380 experience remains highly sought-after by travellers all around the globe, due to its unrivalled comfort and signature cabin features and services.
