Ryanair reports 12% jump in passengers
Ryanair kicked off the start of summer with a 12% jump in the number of passengers carried. The airline carried 11.8m passengers in June, up by 1.2m on the same month last year. More passengers per flight were carried last month, with a load factor of 96% recorded, a year-on-year rise of two percentage points. Ryanair chief marketing officer Kenny Jacobs attributed the monthly hike in passengers to lower fares and the airline’s ‘always getting better’ customer service scheme. Eastern and central European rival Wizz Air saw June carryings rise by 23.6% to almost 2.5m passengers with a load factor up by 0.6 percentage points to 92.3% as it opened its 28th base at Luton airport. <br/>
