The commitment, which includes 34 firm 777-8 orders and an additional 16 purchase right options, also includes GE90 engines for an additional order of two Boeing 777 Freighters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total value of the order with GE is more than U.S.$6.8 billion list price, including spare engines, a new order for GE90-115B engines, and a TrueChoice\u2122 services agreement to cover the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) of the engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2021\/12\/qatar-airways-worlds-best-airline-2021.html\">Qatar Airways is voted the World\u2019s Best Airline at the 2021 World Airline Awards.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said: \u201cWith our status as the world\u2019s largest air freight carrier, Qatar Airways has ambitious plans for the future of its cargo operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs operators of the Boeing 777 family, including the global launch customer of Boeing\u2019s 777-8 Freighter aircraft, we are delighted to have GE as our partners and these contracts for GE engines further cement the strong relationship between Qatar Airways and GE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGE Aviation has great history and proven track record of powering freighter-dedicated aircraft,\u201d said GE Aviation CEO John Slattery. \u201cWe are proud to continue building our relationship with Qatar Airways and play a significant role in their growth with this order of Boeing 777-8 Freighter and 777 Freighter aircraft.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/01\/qatar-airways-releases-video-a350-paint.html\">Qatar Airways releases video, hits back at Airbus in A350 paint dispute.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The GE9X engine helps meet GE Aviation\u2019s commitment to a more sustainable aviation industry by introducing the latest generations of heat-resistant Ceramic Matrix Composites materials, additively-manufactured parts and lean burn combustion that help improve fuel efficiency. It is the world\u2019s most powerful and most fuel-efficient turbofan. The GE9X offers the lowest NOx emissions in its class, and is the quietest GE engine ever produced. Like all GE commercial engines, both the GE9X and GE90 are compatible with any approved Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Incorporating a suite of propulsion technologies unique to GE, the GE9X offers up to 10 percent lower specific fuel consumption compared to the engine it replaces. It builds on the heritage of the pioneering GE90 engine and offers a combination of power and efficiency unmatched in the freighter market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related
