Rolls-Royce will provide TotalCare® long term services support for Trent 700 engines powering 29 Airbus A330 aircraft and Trent 800 engines powering 21 Boeing 777 aircraft.

Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al-Maktoum, Chairman and Chief Executive, Emirates Airline & Group said: “These agreements will extend the business relationship and strengthen the partnership between the two companies. This will also provide a better platform for effective management of engine life cycle costs and enhanced engine reliability.”

Sir John Rose, Rolls-Royce, Chief Executive, said: “We are delighted to announce these agreements with Emirates, a valued customer with three Trent engine family members in service. All are now supported by TotalCare service packages which optimise operational efficiency.”
