and since no airliner can perform a all engine out glide safely (like say a cessna) I hardly think flying with only one engine (to start with) is an option.
I seem to remember an AirTransat Airbus that glided to land in the Azores a few years ago after total fuel exhaustion...

Great job by the pilots, regardless of the reasons they were in that situation
