""During the booking process, Ryanair passengers won’t be informed that their flights will be on Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. The carrier’s chief executive confirmed this news yesterday.""
What an arrogant s...t !!!! Think they have the right to know.

For once I actually understand Ryanair.
1: they run a Business, if the FAA and EASA and all the others aprove the aircraft, it is deemed safe.
2: there is no way to assign a particular aircraft to a flight a few months in advance. What happens with AOGs, diversions etc etc.

Im sure other airlines will do the same, of realize that last minute changes forces them to use a MAX instead of a NG

Agreed. Consumers should have the right to know what they're purchasing. When I book a flight with Iberia or Lufthansa, they're both fairly reliable at providing the same A319/20/21 that was listed during the booking process. Same with KLM and 737/8/9s.

If you actually bothered to read the full quote you're putting your own interpretation on it.
“The reality is [if people want to know whether or not they are due to fly in a Max jet], the answer is that you won’t,” O’Leary told FlightGlobal in Brussels.
“Because we won’t know. We do our aircraft allocations on a nightly basis. You’re booking your ticket six, eight weeks in advance.”

Lets face it if the boys and girls who are going to fly this thing don't get on it no passengers are going anywhere regardless of when you booked your ticket.
No pilots no fly.
Reality being however by the time they get this thing back in the air if will probably be the safest thing in the sky.............

Ryanair are not interested
if their pax know what the aircraft is, their sole interest is their wallets and how they can get their hands on the contents. O'Leary isn't going to change now, why should he, he makes loads of money out of his business.

When re certified, it should be safer, or at least as safe, as the 737NG. Boeing and the FAA can't afford for it not to be.
You, and some parts of the media are trying to create a fatuous argument.
Nothing to see here ... move on.
Don't any airlines T&C when booking advise that no particular make or type of aircraft is guaranteed .... I'm sure it's in there somewhere. It's the company that decide the plane ... route, distance, load factors of SLF and real freight, availability and staffing to name a few conditions.
If you want to be sure of the type of plane you're going to fly in, pay up for a business jet.
(Even the old BEA printed timetables of the 1960s/1970s used to state EQV = Equipment Varies!!)

Sharklets is right however when you buy something you have the right to know what you are buying and whether we like it or not consumer confidence rightly or wrongly has dropped in this aircraft. As I stated it is the attitude that is wrong here.....

Again ... this is a non event. If you allow RYR's style and culture to wind you up whenever they do something you don't agree with .. you will not be a happy person.

If you are still unhappy about this then pay more and fly on another airline that has no 737s in its fleet.

My concern is that the MAX doesn’t get to fly again, which would be bad news for Ryanair and its staff, and prices on other airlines will go up.
