Hi Fly was invited to take part in AeroEngines Europe 2026, held from 1 to 2 September in Lisbon, as a guest speaker, sharing its industry expertise on aircraft engines and MRO.
As part of the conference programme, Miguel Branco, CAMO Powerplant and Landing Gear Coordinator at Hi Fly, represented the company as a speaker in the “Economics of an Engine” session, held on 1 September. The discussion explored the impact of rising engine and maintenance costs on airlines, the operational challenges associated with engine availability, and the strategic decisions involved in fleet management, investment and long-term planning.
For Hi Fly, these topics are closely connected to its day-to-day operations, with engine performance, maintenance requirements, availability and planning being areas that are regularly considered across its operational and technical teams.
The invitation to contribute to this discussion reflects the value of Hi Fly’s operational experience and technical expertise within the ACMI and wider aviation community, providing an opportunity to bring first-hand knowledge to the conference while exchanging perspectives with industry professionals and companies across the engine, MRO and aviation sectors.
Hi Fly’s participation on AeroEngines Europe 2026 reflects its commitment to remaining actively engaged in these conversations, contributing its expertise and supporting the continued development of more efficient, resilient and sustainable aviation operations.
