Emirates seeks Rolls-Royce A380 engine deal, nothing finalised | Reuters:

Emirates is edging towards a deal with Rolls-Royce (RR.L) to power its latest Airbus (AIR.PA) A380 superjumbos but has not yet reached a final agreement, the Dubai-based airline said on Sunday.

The fate of a lifeline order for up to 36 of the double-decker aircraft, of which Emirates already has over 100 in operation, has been widely questioned due to inconclusive talks over a separate deal between Emirates and engine makers.

“We are getting closer (to a deal with Rolls-Royce) but have not crossed the line yet,” a spokesperson for the Dubai-based carrier said, asked about the status of negotiations with the British engine maker.
