Yes just like all 737-800, Ryanair's will have the range to fly Egypt routes from the UK. However, many of the FR aircraft (if not all) have 'de-rated' engines. All it has to do to 'up-rate' these engines are some paper work and some minor onboard computer changes. Bascially a de-rated engine means restricting the maximum thrust you can get from the engine on a daily basis thus saving engine wear and tear and in some cases fuel useage. With the extra fuel needed for a longer sector more power would be needed because of the extra weight carried on take-off.

Yes they are all rated at 26K limiting the MTOW to 74,990kgs. If they had the 27K engines they could lift 79,010kgs I beleive. That extra 4,000kgs would be handy but the current route network does not really need it, except maybe TFS-BLL with a full load and headwinds it could make a difference.

Our 800's have 26k engines, and MTOM restricted to 79015 kgs. The MTOW you have there is a company limit to reduce nav charges, that's all, nothing to do with the power of the engines.

They may obtain them from the UK, but as it would be a non-EU route operated by a 'foreign operator' Egypt will charge royalties.
These are around US$4500 per flight so I can't see Ryanair playing that game given that it is reported that they have just cut their programme from another airport quite significantly due to a reported €0.50 rise in passenger taxes.
