Ryanair threatens to seek alternative to Boeing order

  • On November 6, 2023, Ryanair, the leading European airline by passenger volume, warned it might cancel its orders for Boeing aircraft in response to proposed U.S. Tariffs that could significantly increase costs.
  • The threat followed warnings from U.S. Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi against Ryanair buying Chinese planes amid security concerns and tariffs announced by former President Trump.
  • Ryanair has 210 Boeing 737 MAX planes on order, including 150 firm orders for the larger MAX 10 model, with the final delivery due by March 2025 and MAX 10 deliveries starting in 2027.
  • CEO Michael O'Leary stated Ryanair would reconsider Boeing orders if tariffs raise prices materially and might consider Chinese maker COMAC if its planes were 10%-20% cheaper than Airbus.
  • This move signals possible shifts in supplier choices that could disrupt Ryanair's growth and the aerospace market amid ongoing tariff conflicts between the U.S. And China.
