Ryanair's first Boeing Max 10 jets are scheduled to enter its fleet in spring 2027, according to Chief Financial Officer Neil Sorahan. The low-cost carrier's fleet expansion comes as it continues to grow passenger numbers, maintaining its position as Europe's largest airline by passenger traffic. Sorahan confirmed the timeline in a Bloomberg Television interview.

The delivery schedule is critical for Ryanair's growth strategy, as the Max 10's higher seat capacity supports its ultra-low-cost model. The airline has been a major Boeing customer, and the new jets will replace older aircraft while increasing efficiency. The timing aligns with Boeing's production recovery efforts following earlier certification delays.

Sorahan also addressed an online exchange between CEO Michael O'Leary and Elon Musk, though details weren't specified. Investors will watch for final Max 10 certification and production ramp-up progress. The airline's ability to secure timely deliveries remains key to its ambitious growth targets through the latter half of this decade.
