CFM International is an aircraft engine developer, with 50:50 ownership of US-based General Electric and France-based Safran Aircraft Engines.
"The airline also signed a 10-year rate per flight hour (RPFH) agreement with CFM Services that covers all LEAP-1B engines powering SpiceJet's 737 MAX airplanes," SpiceJet said in statement here.
Under the RPFH agreement, CFM International guarantees maintenance costs for all SpiceJet's LEAP-1B engines on a pay by hour basis, it said.
"We are looking forward to introducing the new LEAP-1B into our fleet," said Ajay Singh, SpiceJet's Chairman and Managing Director, adding that LEAP-1B is living up to its promises for efficiency and reliability.
