Emirates orders 65 Boeing 777X planes in $38 bn deal
Emirates ordered 65 Boeing 777X planes in a deal worth $38 billion on Monday, delivering a vote of confidence to the US manufacturer on day one of the Dubai Airshow.
Deliveries of the much-delayed plane are expected to start from the second quarter of 2027 under the agreement, which also includes 130 GE9X engines from General Electric.
Emirates, already the biggest customer for the Boeing 777, now has 270 777X, 10 777 freighters and 35 Boeing 787s on order.
