This agreement ensures that the airline has continued flexibility
as to where it places its aircraft for the upcoming maintenance season. The
110,000sq meter facility will facilitate the heavy maintenance of Ryanair’s
aircraft as the airline grows its fleet to 800 aircraft, incl. the recent 300
Boeing MAX-10 order, which will see the airline grow to carry over 300m
passengers per year by 2034. These new, fuel-efficient, greener technology
aircraft offer 21% more seats, burn 20% less fuel, and are 50% quieter than our
B737-NGs.
Ryanair uses a mix of internal facilities and external
suppliers to conduct its heavy maintenance. The
airline group continues to
invest in internal heavy maintenance facilities and this agreement will
complement these facilities and ensure the maintenance requirements are more
than met over the coming years.
