Overview

• Cathay Pacific exercised options from its 2013 777X agreement to order 14 additional 777-9 jets and secured options for seven more in the future.
• The 777-9’s 7,295-nautical-mile range enables new direct ultra long-haul flights linking Hong Kong to key global destinations.
• Powered by GE9X engines and advanced composite wings, the aircraft reduces fuel consumption and emissions by about 20% and cuts noise by 40%.
• The jets are pending U.S. Federal Aviation Administration certification after delays, with initial deliveries to Cathay Pacific expected in early 2027.
• More than 550 Boeing 777X orders worldwide have sustained thousands of jobs at Boeing’s Everett site and across its global supplier network.
