Cabin Retrofit and Modification Service

Description

This service encompasses the structural and systems engineering required to overhaul aircraft interiors at the Lufthansa Technik Philippines (LTP) facility in Pasay and Clark. It is a specialised maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) offering that allows airlines to modernise existing fleets through the installation of new seating, monuments, and inflight entertainment systems. The service draws on the established technical standards of the German parent company while leveraging the strategic location and capacity of the Philippine workshops. Primary customers are international commercial carriers and aircraft leasing firms seeking to synchronise cabin upgrades with heavy maintenance checks (C and D checks). The service is typically sold as a turnkey project or as part of a long-term total component support contract. While the facility is known for widebody expertise, notable public documentation links the site to work for major global carriers, including the Lufthansa Group and regional Asian operators requiring Boeing and Airbus modifications. The Garage desk notes that while LTP is a major regional hub, buyers should verify specific Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ownership for complex monuments. Risks include supply chain delays for third-party interior components, which can extend ground time during a retrofit. We would verify the current hangar capacity at the Clark facility and confirm which specific aircraft types are currently active under their EASA and FAA Part 145 certifications for major structural modifications.
