Etihad Airways has selected the GEnx-1B engine to power 10 additional Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft and signed a 15-year OnPoint solution agreement for the maintenance, repair and overhaul on these GEnx engines. Etihad also ordered two GE90-powered Boeing 777 Freighter aircraft. The list price for the GEnx and GE90 engines and OnPoint solution agreement are valued at more than $900m over the life of the agreement.
