RYANAIR is cutting its winter flight schedule due to delays in the delivery of new Boeing 737 planes.<\/p>\n
It will reduce the number of aircraft it planned to base at several airports across Europe, including East Midlands Airport and Dublin Airport.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The airline said it was due to receive 27 new Boeing aircraft between September and December, but expects the figure to be just 14.<\/p>\n
This has been attributed to production delays at the Spirit fuselage factory in Wichita, Kansas, combined with Boeing hold-ups in repairs and deliveries in Seattle, Washington.<\/p>\n
Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary said: "We are working closely with Boeing and their supplier, Spirit, to minimise these delivery delays.<\/p>\n
"It is deeply regrettable that production problems in Wichita and in Seattle have yet again delayed Boeing's contracted deliveries to Ryanair this winter.<\/p>\n
