Ryanair's
Kenny Jacobs said:
"Our
February traffic grew by 10% to 8.2m customers, while our load
factor jumped 2% points to 95%, on the back of lower fares and the
continuing success of our "Always Getting Better" customer
experience programme.
Ryanair's lower
fares and AGB services are leading to slightly higher than expected
load factors in Q4 and accordingly we now expect full year traffic
to just about hit 120m, up almost 13% over the 106.4m customers we
carried in FY16."
