London CNN —Ryanair may be forced to cut flights and raise fares in the peak summer season this year because crisis-hit Boeing can’t deliver the planes it promised.
Until recently, Ryanair was expecting Boeing to deliver 57 Max 8-200 planes by the end of April, Reuters reported O’Leary as saying.
“We don’t really know how many aircraft we’re going to get from Boeing,” he said, according to Reuters.
If only 40 aircraft are delivered, Ryanair may have to “announce some minor schedule cuts” by the end of March, O’Leary was reported as saying.
I think we (will) get some modest compensation out of Boeing,” O’Leary said.
