Ryanair carried a total of 2025 million passengers in April 18,3. This represents an increase of six percent compared to April of the previous year, the company announced.
At the same time, Ryanair was able to increase its aircraft utilization, the so-called load factor, by one percentage point to 93 percent. This figure indicates how many of the available seats were occupied on average.
The increase in passenger numbers and improved load factor indicate continued high demand for air travel and the attractiveness of Ryanair's route network. The load factor of 93 percent underscores the company's efficiency in filling its aircraft. These figures follow a period in which European air traffic as a whole continues to recover from the effects of the pandemic, with many airlines experiencing strong passenger growth.
