RYANAIR JUNE TRAFFIC GROWS 11% TO 10.6M CUSTOMERS

DESPITE FREQUENT AND UNACCEPTABLE ATC STRIKES

Ryanair, Europe's favourite airline, today (5 Jul) released its June traffic stats as follows:

• Traffic grew 11% to 10.6m customers.

• Load factor rose 1% point to 94%.

• Rolling annual traffic to June grew 16% to 109.6m customers.

Ryanair's Kenny Jacobs said:

"Ryanair's June traffic grew by 11% to 10.6m customers, while our load factor jumped 1% point to 94%. These record monthly numbers and load factors were delivered, at lower fares, despite the repeated disruptions caused by unacceptable French ATC strikes, and we are again calling on the European Commission to urgently take action to reduce the impact of these ATC strikes on Europe's citizens and the single market."
