Emirates Orders 65 Boeing 777Xs, Strengthens Partnership

Emirates, the Dubai-based airline, placed a significant order for sixty-five Boeing seven-seven-seven-nines at the Dubai Air Show, making them Boeings largest customer for this model. This order comes as Emirates enjoys record earnings and high demand for flights through Dubai, a major East-West travel hub. The airline is betting on the seven-seven-seven-nine, despite its delayed entry into service, to support thousands of jobs and strengthen their partnership with Boeing and GE. Emirates expects to receive these new aircraft in the second quarter of 2027. The air show also showcased renewed interest in flying taxis and military sales, with Russia participating despite Western sanctions.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
