That's the complete opposite of reality. Ryanair only buy new from Boeing (often being the largest customer - the MAX 8 200 being designed specifically for their needs) and have the youngest fleet of any major.
- rsynnott 1y agoYeah, this used to be Ryanair's thing, and they had a motley collection of weird old 737s, but they're very much all new these days.
- closewith 1y agoEven that's not true. Following a meeting with Herb Kelleher, when then-CFO O'Leary became CEO in January 1994, the airline ordered its first Boeing 737s direct from Boeing and has never flown a second-hand aircraft since (unless you include the Airbus A320s from the Lauda acquisition).
