Steady boys, just because nothing was announced in flashing neon at Dubai doesn't mean a deal hasn't already been done! CX VERY rarely if ever make these types of announcements at an Airshow, especially in Emirates back yard. We already know the CX bean counters have been foaming at the mouth over the 777x, and if I was a betting man, I'd have a few $ on a deal to lease the 747-8i, and buy the 777x for the long term.
