Ryanair is known for low-cost scheduled flights, but it has also offered a specially configured aircraft for business and group travel. The figures below come from a Fly4free article published on 18 April 2019. Availability and pricing require current confirmation with the airline.
A Boeing 737-700 configured for 60 passengers
The Boeing 737-700 described in the article had 60 reclining seats arranged 2×2, giving passengers considerably more space than a standard airline cabin.
At the time, Fly4free reported a charter price of approximately £5,000 per flight hour. With all 60 seats occupied, the article estimated around PLN 410 per person per hour using the exchange rate of the period. This is a historical illustration, not a present-day charter quote.
Baggage, catering and flight duration
The 2019 offer reportedly allowed two pieces of cabin baggage and two checked bags per passenger. Catering packages, including drinks, snacks and optional meals or a welcome drink, were available for an additional charge.
According to the report, the aircraft could operate routes within Europe and other destinations served by Ryanair, with flights lasting up to approximately six hours.
How this charter differs from a private business jet
The arrangement illustrates how an airline aircraft can serve a private group. It was a specially configured Boeing 737 chartered exclusively for one group, rather than a conventional small private jet.
Availability, routes and pricing must be confirmed for each proposed journey. An individual quotation is the practical starting point for planning a group charter.
