Boeing and Ryanair have entered a multi-year agreement for the plane manufacturer to provide a digital flight operations solution for the carrier’s next-gen 737 and 737 MAX fleet.

The deal was announced at the Farnborough International Airshow (FIA) on July 24, 2024.

Boeing said that for the strategic agreement, it will use its latest version of Jeppesen FliteDeck Pro 5.0 electronic flight bag (EFB) solution.

FliteDeck Pro will provide Ryanair with tailored route information and the latest technology, including Smart Airport Maps to optimize taxi routes, reduce fuel consumption and improve ground safety.

As a platform-agnostic EFB solution, FliteDeck Pro provides airport moving maps, customer-inserted content and tailored maps.

“We are excited to integrate Boeing’s newest electronic flight bag into our operations. This advanced tool will optimize our flight operations, minimize disruptions, and enhance efficiency across our expanding fleet,” Neal McMahon, Chief Operations Officer of Ryanair said in a statement.

“Our latest version of FliteDeck Pro includes enhanced pilot briefings, route planning and traffic features. This technology enables Ryanair with real-time data and insights, enhancing decision making and flight operations,” said Brad Surak, Vice President of Boeing Digital Aviation Solutions.
