Dubai's Emirates expects to receive its long-delayed first Boeing 777X by June next year, but has yet to see progress on Rolls-Royce engine improvements that would allow it to order the competing Airbus A350-1000, its president said.
Emirates is the world's largest buyer of wide-body jets and has frequently complained about lengthy delays on Boeing's largest model, as well as the engine durability on Airbus' own biggest model, which it has held off ordering.
迪拜的阿联酋航空预计将在明年6月前接收到其长期延迟交付的首架波音777X，但在罗尔斯-罗伊斯引擎改进方面尚未看到进展——这些改进是其订购竞品空客A350-1000的前提，该航司总裁表示。
阿联酋航空是全球最大的宽体客机买家，曾多次抱怨波音最大型号的长时间延迟，以及空客最大型号的引擎耐久性问题，因此一直未订购该机型。
