O&#8217;Leary said a further 51 of the 197-seat aircraft were due by the end of April, including 21 by the end of this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/aerospace-defense\/ryanair-ceo-voices-doubts-over-boeing-737-max-deliveries-2022-09-07\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We are concerned that Boeing will not meet those deliveries. They are running late at the moment, there are problems with production in Seattle and we want to understand those problems,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary told a news conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/08\/ryanair-says-max-10-will-not-be-certified-by-year-end.html\">Ryanair says 737 MAX 10 will not be certified by year-end.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;They say they can. We doubt their capacity to deliver. We were supposed to get 21 aircraft this side of Christmas. They are now mumbling it might be 17, it might be 15. It&#8217;s difficult to get any specifics out of Boeing.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asked about O&#8217;Leary&#8217;s comments, a Boeing spokesperson said the planemaker valued its partnership with Ryanair and is committed to supporting the airline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>O&#8217;Leary said Ryanair had agreed during discussions with Boeing last week to go to Seattle to establish when it would be getting the 51 aircraft, which it said were needed to ensure continued growth next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
