Ryanair carried 12.6 million passengers across its route network in March, latest monthly operational figures from the airline show.
That figure represents a 12% year-on-year increase from the 11.2 million people carried in the same month last year, which was heavily impacted by the outbreak of war in Ukraine after Russia’s invasion of the country.
Load factor – which measures how full a plane is – for last month was 93%, which was 6% ahead of the corresponding month last year.
On a rolling 12-month basis – over the full 12 months from March to March – Ryanair carried 168.6 million people; 74% up on the same 12-month spread a year earlier.
