Etihad says Jet deal closer, won't cancel B787 order

  • United Arab Emirates: Tuesday, February 05 - 2013 at 05:58

Etihad Airways has said it is close to taking a stake in Jet Airways, Reuters has reported. "We are doing our due diligence (on Jet Airways) in the next week. We will present it to our board and take it from there," chief executive James Hogan said. Separately, the Abu Dhabi-based airline ruled out plans to cancel its orders of Boeing's troubled 787 Dreamliner. "787 is a great aircraft, we have no doubt it will be resolved and the aircraft will be up and fine," Hogan said. Etihad has a total of 41 787-9 Dreamliners on order and options for an additional 25 aircraft. He also said the carrier has had no discussions with Alitalia beyond code-sharing.
