Like most low-cost airlines, Ryanair favors a fairly uniform fleet strategy. Indeed, while the wider Ryanair Group as a whole does feature a handful of Airbus A320-200 narrowbodies, its fleet is dominated by aircraft from the Boeing 737NG and 737 MAX families. That said, its relationship with Boeing has struggled somewhat recently.
Indeed, frustration at delivery delays and quality issues at the manufacturer, as well as tariffs affecting US goods, have led the Irish budget giant to think twice about some of its orders with Boeing. Indeed, the carrier is even said to be considering low-cost alternatives from the Chinese market. However, Boeing seems to be back in Ryanair's good books for now, having expedited some of its deliveries.
