Ryanair today (7 Apr) released customer and load factor statistics for March as follows:

• Traffic grew by 28% to 6.67m customers.
• Load factor increased 10% points to 90%.
• Rolling annual traffic to March grew 11% to 90.5m customers.

Ryanair Chief Marketing Officer, Kenny Jacobs said:

“Ryanair’s March traffic grew by 28% to 6.67m customers, while our load factor jumped by       10% points to 90%, thanks to our lower fares, our stronger forward booking strategy and the     continuing success of our “Always Getting Better” customer programme, which continues to   deliver better than expected load factors on our significantly expanded winter schedule.

                   With our new routes, increased frequencies and Business Plus service, customers can now look   forward to further service enhancements, as we roll out the 2nd year of our AGB programme in       2015, which includes a new website and app, new cabin interiors, new crew uniforms and        inflight menus, reduced airport fees, and great new digital features such as ‘hold the fare’,          destination content and fare comparison services.”
