my outfit changes aircraft on a particular flight overnight from an A319 to A320 to B737, all depending on weather, tickets sold etc.
im sure that applies to ryanair as well.
route A is planned with a NG, route B with a MAX. If route A is overbooked and B only has a 80% loadfactor, the aircraft will change if they are on the same base. You simply cannot promise an aircraft type, there are to many unknown variables
