On August 6, 2025, GE Aerospace announced that Cathay Pacific committed to purchasing GE9X engines to power 14 additional Boeing 777-9 aircraft. This increases the airline's total commitment to 35 GE9X powered 777-9s.
The deal also includes a service agreement covering the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of the GE9X engines. Cathay Pacific was the first customer in the Asia-Pacific region to select the new GE9X engine, demonstrating continued confidence in the product.
The GE9X engine is recognized as the world's most powerful and fuel-efficient commercial aircraft engine in its class. It offers 10 percent better specific fuel consumption than its predecessor, the GE90-115B, and is certified to run on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) blends.
