Ryanair Holdings Plc said it will only receive 40 Boeing Co. Max jets before the end of June rather than the 57 unites originally anticipated, forcing the airline to reduce flight frequencies across its network as its sole aircraft provider grapples with manufacturing issues.
As a result of the delays, the carrier’s annual passenger forecast will drop to just under 200 million, compared with a previous goal of 205 million for the fiscal full year ending March 2025, according to a statement on Friday.
