“Ryanair’s Aug traffic grew by 10% to 12.7m customers, while our load factor jumped 1% to 97%, on the back of lower fares and the continuing success of our “Always Getting Better” customer experience programme.

Customers can look forward to even lower fares when they make advance bookings for winter 2017, so there’s never been a better time to book a low fare flight on Ryanair. All customers who wish to book a city break or holiday should do so now on the Ryanair.com website or mobile app, where they can avail of the lowest fares in Europe.”

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
