Ryanair's All-Boeing Fleet: Sticking With It or Time for Change?

So, I was thinking about Ryanair and their all-Boeing 737 fleet. They've been pretty loyal to Boeing for a long time now. With all the chatter about Airbus A320neo's efficiency and popularity, do you guys think Ryanair might ever switch things up and consider Airbus? I know they just placed a huge order for more 737 MAXs, but with everything going on in the industry, maybe they'd benefit from some diversification?

I mean, sticking with one manufacturer has its perks - like streamlined maintenance and pilot training. But it also seems a bit risky not to have any alternatives. What if there's another grounding issue like we saw with the MAX? I guess it's working for them now, but airlines have to adapt, right?

Just curious if anyone else has thoughts on whether Ryanair will keep flying the all-Boeing route or if they'll shake things up in the future. What would you do if you were in their shoes?

I get why Ryanair sticks with Boeing. It keeps things simple and cheaper. But yeah, not having a backup option is a gamble. I mean, when the MAX was grounded, it was a huge headache for airlines. If I were them, I'd at least consider having a small Airbus fleet. It might cost more upfront, but having that flexibility could pay off in the long run. What do you think? Worth the extra cost for peace of mind?

Ryanair sticking with Boeing makes sense for now, especially with their big order of 737 MAXs. But having all your eggs in one basket can be risky, like you said. Remember when Southwest had issues during the MAX grounding? Maybe not a full switch to Airbus, but even a small fleet of A320neos could give them some flexibility. Plus, competition between manufacturers might get them better deals. Wonder if they're just too committed to Boeing though.
