Jet Maintenance Solutions (Jet MS) is establishing a line maintenance station at Nice Côte d'Azur Airport in France and will add one in the London area in the fourth quarter. According to the Lithuanian MRO provider, Côte d'Azur has been a leading airport for private aircraft in Europe in the past two years based on takeoffs. “With the successful beginning of operations at this location, we are already looking at more potential business aviation centers and FBO organizations where we could offer our services,” said Jet MS CEO Vytis Zalimas.

In addition to operating with a team of engineers, technicians, and business development and sales personnel in Nice, the unit of Avia Solutions Group is offering mobile repair team services for routine checks and AOG at nearby airports, including in Cannes, Marseille, and Toulon.

“By opening our doors to new clients in this picturesque city of the French Riviera, we are entering a new and demand-heavy market,” said Zalimas. “Having had over 2,050 movements even during the pandemic in 2020, the airport shows a strong demand for sophisticated private aircraft infrastructure."
