The FAA paused certification until Boeing resolves a newly disclosed software issue. O'Leary nevertheless said deliveries of 29 Boeing aircraft over the summer showed progress in production and quality.
Ryanair also announced a $300 million expansion at Warsaw-Modlin, where it plans to add three based aircraft, and said Poland is under consideration for a new engine shop. O'Leary predicted jet-fuel costs would lift summer 2027 fares by 15% to 20%.
