TUI Airline has decided to introduce the digital Technical Logbook (eTLB) from Aviatar, the Lufthansa Technik platform, for its entire fleet of around 130 aircraft. This step replaces the previous paper-based process for recording technical problems. The use of the eTLB enables more efficient and precise documentation through pre-defined text blocks and automated input masks, which increases data quality and transparency.
The introduction of the eTLB is part of TUI's ongoing efforts to modernize its engineering and maintenance organization. The platform will improve collaboration between pilots and maintenance teams and is a significant part of Lufthansa Technik's Digital Tech Ops Ecosystem, which also includes the AMOS and flydocs solutions.
Niklas Kropp, Head of Business Development & Fleet Performance at TUI Airline, praised the partnership with Aviatar and emphasized the importance of the project for optimizing the fleet and maintenance processes. Frank Martens, Head of Sales & Key Account Digital Fleet Services at Lufthansa Technik, highlighted the close and productive collaboration that has led to an agile and effective project setup.
TUI Airline plans to introduce the eTLB initially at its UK subsidiary, and approvals from various European aviation authorities are already in progress.
