Grtz, John
Singapore Airlines
We are pleased to share that we have agreed to order 30 more Airbus A350-900s and 30 Boeing 787-10Xs in deals valued at more than US$17 billion. The agreement with Airbus comprises 30 firm-ordered A350-900s for delivery from the 2016/17 financial year, plus options for 20 more. The agreement with Boeing comprises 30 firm-ordered B787-10Xs for delivery from the 2018/19 financial year, and it is conditional upon Boeing formally launching the B787-10X programme.
“Today’s aircraft orders are among the biggest in Singapore Airlines’ history, helping to ensure that we retain our industry leading position. They demonstrate our commitment to the Singapore hub and our confidence in the future for premium full-service travel,” said Singapore Airlines CEO, Mr Goh Choon Phong. “These new aircraft will provide opportunities to grow and renew our fleet and enhance our network, benefiting customers by offering more travel options and the latest in-flight cabin products.”
Bombardier announced that GulfAir has ordered 10 CS100 with 6 more options. This is an order that was already announced as a UFO order in 2011 and only now GulfAir is named as the ordering airline. source
And Boeing has announced the first order (or rather a 'commitment to order', subject to the launch of the model) for the B787-10. GECAS has ordered 10 B787-10. Press release
Qatar AW has signed an order for an additional 9 B777-300ER. 2 of these were already on the books for an unidentified customer, the rest is new. Press release

Hardly a rumour, as it is in the Boeing press release:
The agreements include a firm order for two airplanes previously attributed to an unidentified customer on Boeing Commercial Airplanes Orders and Deliveries website
