Ryanair says in talks with Boeing about possible Max 10 order
Ryanair has held talks with Boeing about its new larger version of the 737 airliner, the MAX 10, but has made clear it would only be interested if the price is lowered, Ryanair CE Michael O'Leary said Monday. Ryanair declined to comment in June when it was reported the airline was in talks with Boeing about buying the new plane, which seats up to 230 passengers compared to 189 seats on its current 737-800 fleet and the 196 seats on Boeing MAX 200 aircraft it has ordered. "We have told them to go back and if they can come up with a price on the Max 10 that meaningfully reduces our unit cost, we would be very happy to place an order," O'Leary told analysts on a conference call. O'Leary said Ryanair did not need to order any more planes for 5 years, but would consider an offer if the price was right. <br/>
