The deal also includes a service agreement to cover 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 and we're honored they continue to place their confidence in our products and services," said Mahendra Nair , Group Vice President for Commercial Programs at GE Aerospace. "Combining the world's largest twin-engine commercial passenger jet and the most powerful commercial aircraft engine will enable Cathay to reach destinations across the globe."

Available exclusively on the Boeing 777X family of 777-9 and 777-8F aircraft, the GE9X offers 10 percent better specific fuel consumption than its predecessor, the GE90- 115B , with emissions that are a generation ahead in technology.
