Ryanair Customers Increase By 11% In July
Airline Ryanair has announced it carried 10.1 million customers in July, an increase of 11 per cent.
Rolling annual traffic also rose by 15 per cent to 95.3m customers.
Ryanair's Kenny Jacobs said: "This is the first time ever that any airline has carried over 10m international customers in one calendar month. For example we carried more customers in one month (10.14m in July) than Aer Lingus carried in a whole year (9.77m in 2014).
"These record customer numbers and highest ever 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."
