LONDON (Alliance News) - Irish budget carrier Ryanair Holdings PLC on Tuesday said its traffic rose by 16% in April and said its load factor improved by seven percentage points.
Ryanair said traffic in the month rose to 9 million compared to 7.8 million a year earlier, with its rolling traffic to the end of April up by 12% to 91.8 million customers.
The carrier added its load factor improved in the month to 91%, up from 84% in April last year.
"Ryanair's April traffic grew by 16% to 9 million customers, while our load factor jumped by 7% points to 91%, thanks to our lower fares, our stronger forward bookings and the continuing success of our "Always Getting Better" customer experience improvement programme, which continues to deliver better than expected load factors on our significantly expanded summer schedule," said Chief Marketing Officer Kenny Jacobs.
