Ryanair would look for an alternative aircraft supplier if US tariffs materially affect the price of planes it has ordered from Boeing, chief executive Michael O’Leary said in a letter on Thursday, adding that he would consider Chinese plane maker COMAC.

Airbus orders are booked till 2029 iirc.

If their airplanes are as reliable as their houses or infrastructure, this is going to be even worse than Boeing.
