Aug 14 | Aug 15 | Change | |
Customers | 9.4M | 10.4M | +10% |
Load Factor | 93% | 95% | +2% |
Ryanair's Kenny Jacobs said:
"Ryanair's August traffic grew by 10% to 10.4m customers, while our load factor jumped 2% points to 95%. These record monthly numbers and load factors are due to our lower fares, our stronger forward bookings and the continuing success of our "Always Getting Better" customer experience programme, which continues to deliver stronger than expected traffic and load factors on our biggest ever summer schedule.
Ryanair customers can look forward to more service enhancements in the autumn, as we continue Year 2 of our AGB programme, which include our new car hire service, a new website, new app, new cabin interiors, new crew uniforms, and improved inflight menus, as Ryanair continues to deliver so much more than just the lowest fares in Europe."
