DUBLIN, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Ryanair has cut its
annual passenger target to 50 million passengers from a forecast
of 60 million made in July, Group Chief Executive Michael
O'Leary told Reuters in an interview on Wednesday.

Ryanair in July cut its passenger target to 60 million for
the financial year to March 2021, from the 80 million it had
forecast in May, citing higher COVID-19 cases.

"We are guiding now for about 50 million passengers for the
full year to the end of March," O'Leary said. "I think the
winter of 2020 will essentially be a write-off."
