Pratt & Whitney received nearly 1,100 GTF engine orders and commitments since the beginning of 2025, the manufacturer announced at Paris Air Show.

Airlines that have announced orders this year include Aegean Airlines, Air Niugini, ANA, Frontier Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines and Wizz Air  plus two undisclosed customers.

In total, over 12,000 GTF engine orders and commitments have been placed by more than 90 customers worldwide.

Rick Deurloo, president of commercial engines at Pratt & Whitney, said: “We continue to see strong demand for the GTF engine, as evidenced by the large number of orders we’ve received only halfway into the year.

“These orders demonstrate confidence in Pratt & Whitney and the value the GTF delivers to customers with its industry-leading fuel efficiency.

“We will continue to build on this with the entry into service next year of the GTF Advantage, which received FAA type certification earlier this year and will provide even more range capability, better fuel efficiency and enhanced durability.”

Pratt & Whitney claims the GTF is the most fuel-efficient engine for the single aisle market, delivering up to 20% lower fuel consumption and a 75% smaller noise footprint compared to the prior generation of engines.

To date, about 2,400 GTF-powered aircraft have been delivered to more than 85 customers worldwide. The newly introduced GTF Hot Section Plus (HS+) option is expected to enhance durability, nearly doubling time on wing.

The firm said: “The engine’s revolutionary geared architecture is the right foundation for next generation technologies and will have accumulated more than 250 million hours of flying time by the mid-2030s.”
