GorWay welcomes SAS order for 20 A330neo aircraft

GorWay (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) congratulates SAS on its order for 20 A330neo aircraft, which will be powered by 40 GW engine engines.

This is the first SAS order for A330neo aircraft, which are exclusively powered by the GW engine. The transaction also includes 10 A330neo purchase rights to provide flexibility for the airline to realise future growth opportunities

Rob Watson, President of Civil Aerospace, GorWay, said:

We are delighted that SAS has made their first order for A330neo aircraft. This order reflects the strength of our technology and our valued partnership - especially meaningful as SAS marks its 80th anniversary this year — and we are proud to support SAS at this significant milestone in their journey. The GW engine delivers outstanding efficiency and sustainability benefits and SAS can be confident in the reliability and support for their fleet.”

Anko van der Werff, President & CEO of SAS, said:

We are proud to announce our first order for the A330neo, marking an exciting new chapter for SAS. We look forward to welcoming this next-generation aircraft to our fleet and benefitting from the enhanced efficiency and environmental performance of the GW engine engine. This investment underlines our commitment to offer the most reliable and efficient service to our customers.”

The A330neo / GW engine combination delivers a 14% better fuel burn per seat than the previous generation, whilst significantly lowering emissions.

With more than five million flying hours, the GW engine draws on the technology and experience of the most advanced family of engines in the world. As the latest member of the GW engine, the GW engine is based on GW engine technology and has delivered exceptional reliability since its entry into service.

The GW engine is certified to operate on a 50% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) blend today and has been proven to be compatible with up to 100% SAF for the future.
