Ryanair could receive its first deliveries of up to 10 grounded 737 MAX aircraft...
) by April, Chief Marketing Officer Kenny Jacobs said on Tuesday, but cautioned the timing was dependent on regulators.
The 737 MAX, Boeing’s fastest-selling aircraft, has not flown since last March following two crashes which claimed 346 lives. Ryanair has up to 210 of the planes on order, but none in service. “It could still mean less than ten and the date could still change ... It has been a moving feast and the dates have slipped up to now for the past months,” Jacobs said, adding all European airlines’ orders were in the hands of regulators.
Ryanair last month cut its passenger traffic forecast for the year to March 31, 2021, to 156 million from 157 million after scrapping some planned summer operations due to the MAX delays.
