Ryanair celebrated (25-Mar-09) the delivery of its 200th brand new Boeing 737-800 Next Generation aircraft. This year Ryanair’s fleet will carry 67 million passengers as it continues to grow traffic with its guaranteed lowest fares, which now average just EUR34, as passengers save billions by switching to Ryanair from high cost fuel surcharging flag carrier airlines.


 
Ryanair celebrated its 200th aircraft by releasing 1million EUR10 seats for travel across its European network in April, May and June.
 
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said:
 
“We are delighted to take delivery of our 200th brand new Boeing aircraft. The total value of the Ryanair fleet is now over USD12billion. We are proud to operate the youngest, greenest and most fuel efficient fleet of any major European airline.
 
“This aircraft will help us to grow to 67 million passengers this year as we continue to lower fares and guarantee no fuel surcharges, which is why so many passengers are switching to Ryanair during the current recession”.
