European budget ​carrier Ryanair ‌expects Boeing to get ​certification of ​its MAX 10 ⁠aircraft ​in the third ​quarter of the year, with ​deliveries ​set to be on ‌time ⁠early next year, CEO Michael ​O'Leary ​told ⁠Reuters at an ​event in ​Brussels.

European airline chiefs are meeting in Brussels on Thursday under the cloud of war in the Middle East and rising oil ​prices, looking to push back against the EU's green agenda and what the industry says are cumbersome rules surrounding ‌sustainable jet fuel.

Investors have been repositioning sharply across European airline stocks since the outbreak of Middle East hostilities, with Ryanair Holdings PLC (LSE:RYA) emerging as the clear defensive favourite while short positions have built against carriers more vulnerable to elevated fuel prices. This is Citi's analysis of positioning data from institutional investors, with the analysis showing that sector positioning has turned more negative over both the past week and month.

RYAAY's passengers rise 6% year over year to 13.3M in February 2026, with load factor flat year over year at 92%.

Ryanair boosts Alicante capacity 10% for Summer 2026 with three new routes and 40 frequency hikes, and aims to capture leisure demand and scale.

With Ryanair shares moving north, we assess the current positioning of the stock to determine if it's a good investment at this juncture.
