Boeing struck a deal to sell as much as $40 billion in 737 MAX jets to Ryanair, a victory for the plane maker as it works to re-energize its business and patch up relations with the European discount airline.

Ryanair said it agreed to purchase 150 of Boeing’s 737 MAX 10 jets, the longest version of the narrow-body aircraft, with options to buy up to 150 more. The Irish airline, Europe’s biggest by passenger numbers, will use the new planes to significantly grow its market share on the continent over the next decade, executives said.
