This being a post about airliners crossing oceans, and ETOPS being thrown about - you'd expect people would know. Without any power, airliners can't really glide much. Of the few cases of all-out engine failures, even fewer make it safely to land or water - most of which that did were at their cruising altitude at the time of failure. With only memorable exception being the hudson river ditch. In-fact, during the landing or take-off, even a single engine failure can catch the crew off guard and is among the worst case scenarios pilots are "trained" for.
