Etihad Airways has confirmed an order for 28 Boeing 787 and 777X aircraft, to join the fleet from 2028 onwards.
Currently operating around 100 aircraft, including B777-300ERs and Boeing 787 Dreamliners, Etihad also utilises seven Airbus A380s and is receiving A350-1000s.
The airline is finalising a plan to guide its strategy until 2035, with the additional Boeing aircraft playing a key role in this approach.
