18-Dec-2012 Ryanair, Europe's only ultra-low cost airline, today (18 Dec) announced it had received the final two aircraft of its current Boeing order, growing its fleet to 305 Boeing 737-800s.

Ryanair's fleet is the youngest in Europe, with an average age of less than four years, making Ryanair the greenest and cleanest airline. Ryanair confirmed its intention to place a significant order for further aircraft once a sensible pricing agreement with a suitable manufacturer can be reached.

Ryanair's Stephen McNamara said:

"The arrival of two new aircraft brings to 305 the number of Boeing aircraft in the Ryanair fleet. We remain ready to place a significant order for more aircraft if and when we can reach a sensible pricing agreement with one of the manufacturers."
