The One Boeing 737-700 Hiding In Ryanair's 650 Aircraft Fleet

Unlike Ryanair's much larger 737-800s and 737 MAX 8-200s, the airline’s one 737-700 has only 148 seats and is nearly 19 feet (6 meters) shorter than the 737-800.

So, why does Europe's largest low-cost airline still need such a conspicuous fleet outlier?
