How often do commercial aircraft go in for maintenance?

There are other factors, too. Consider most aircraft cost between $60 and $115 million to replace. While safety must be the primary concern, that’s enough money that aircraft owners would want to make sure that they’re replacing a jet no sooner than is necessary.

All aircrafts, big and small, must regularly be serviced and maintained according to the specifications provided by the manufacturer. But there are several types of maintenance checks and also several ways that maintenance is scheduled. In addition to that, aviation technicians and pilots need to inspect every plane between flights thoroughly and before it takes off.
