ASIM, Nov 22
Orders worth more than 400 million US dollars received at the Dubai Airshow 2025!
It’s been a successful Dubai Airshow for the MTU team with widebody engines in particular enjoying popularity.
✈️ Emirates placed the largest single order. The airline ordered 130 GE9X engines for its Boeing 777X aircraft. MTU contributes the turbine center frame to the GE9X and holds a four percent share in the program.
✈️ Flydubai purchased 60 GEnx engines to power its Boeing 787-9 fleet. MTU has a 6.65 percent stake in the GEnx and is also responsible for the turbine center frame.
✈️ Independently of the Dubai Airshow, Saudia Airlines also recently decided to equip 39 Dreamliners with GEnx engines.
There were also sales successes in Dubai in the narrowbody segment: Helvetic Airlines placed a firm order for three E195-E2s with Embraer and has options for five more. The E195-E2 is powered exclusively by the PW1900G, in which MTU holds a 15 percent stake. MTU develops and manufactures various high-pressure compressor stages, the high-speed low-pressure turbine, and brush seals for the engine.
