Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, today (28 Dec) confirmed that it will take delivery of up to 29 new Boeing 737 aircraft in 2025 – a $3 billion investment in new aircraft technology that will create over 2,000 new jobs for highly paid aviation professionals in Europe.
Ryanair’s new B737 aircraft, which cut CO2 emissions by 16% and noise by 40% (while carrying 4% more passengers), will be allocated to efficient, low-cost airports in EU countries where Govts are stimulating aviation growth, like Sweden, Italy, Spain, and Poland. There will be no growth in countries raising taxes, like the UK, France, and Germany.
Today’s announcement proves yet again that Ryanair is the only major airline in Europe delivering traffic, tourism, and jobs growth across Europe in 2025.
Ryanair’s Head of Comms, Jade Kirwan said:
“While most of Europe’s airlines remain capacity constrained, Ryanair is on track to take delivery of 29 new Boeing 737 aircraft in 2025. This additional capacity will enable Ryanair to grow our passengers from 200m in 2024 to 210m in 2025, and create 2,000 new jobs for highly paid aviation professionals at many of Europe’s most efficient, low-cost airports, where Govts are stimulating sustainable aviation growth by abolishing aviation taxes and lowering airport fees.”
