Ryanair (almost) regains its load factor

STORY: Europe’s largest airline is back to filling more than 90% of its seats

Ryanair hasn’t boasted a load factor like that since before the health crisis

The Irish carrier flew 14.2 million people on 82,600 flights in April 2022

That compares to just 1 million passengers during lockdown a year earlier

The airline is profitable when its load factor reaches 80%

Occupancy previously reached at least 96% a month

Ryanair expects a record 165 million passengers in the year to March 2023
