Confirming market rumors, Etihad and Boeing confirmed that the carrier was behind the 35 strong 787-9 order booked in early March. Additionally, Etihad ordered 10 more 777-300ERs, they currently fly 5 of that type.
Etihad also ordered 25 787 options and 10 777 options as well as 10 787 purchase rights and 5 777 purchase rights. Deliveries of the 787 are to start in 2015.
If all the 787 options and rights are exercised that would give Etihad a fleet of 787 that is 70 strong.
