(Alliance News) - Ryanair Holdings PLC on Friday said it will expand its maintenance facility at Prestwick airport in Scotland.
The Dublin-based airline said the expansion will include the construction of a new 11,938 square metre 4-bay heavy maintenance hangar and additional component workshops.
The GBP40 million investment supports over 1,200 engineering and mechanic jobs in Ayrshire.
Eddie Wilson, chief executive officer of Ryanair DAC, said: "This new state-of-the-art, 4-bay hangar and component workshops will make Prestwick our largest heavy maintenance facility, and a key part of how we will maintain and support our fleet as we continue to grow to 800 aircraft and 300 million passengers by 2034."
Ryanair shares were virtually flat at EUR24.50 each in Dublin on Friday morning.
