Over 2 million passengers to fly with Ryanair this Christmas

Ryanair, Europe’s largest low fares airline today (Wednesday, 19th December 2007) celebrated a record 2 million passengers this Christmas and New Year, uniting friends and families across 26 countries on 605 routes. This is a 20% increase on last year’s holiday traffic and means that Ryanair will carry more international passengers than any other airline in the world this Christmas.

Speaking today, Peter Sherrard, Ryanair’s Head of Communications said:

"Ryanair will operate more flights than Rudolph this Christmas. Passengers have made Ryanair the world’s favourite airline this Festive Season because only we guarantee the lowest fares, the best punctuality and no fuel surcharges ever. Christmas is one of the busiest times of the year and we urge all passengers to arrive early at the airport and those who have not already booked to do so today on Ryanair.com."
