I am sure that GE has a fairly upper tier sponsorship agreement for that logo to appear. However, does any consumer select an airline due to the engines? I just don't see the point in having an aircraft engine partner. It is not like all airlines flying to Tokyo during the Olympics can forced to do so with GE engines.
