Ryanair reports traffic growth in July

Ryanair has announced that its passenger traffic grew by 19% in July 2009 to 6.7 million passengers, which is a new monthly traffic record for the low fares airline.

Ryanair’s Daniel de Carvalho said:

“Ryanair continues to grow traffic strongly each month as passengers switch to Ryanair’s lowest fares and no fuel surcharge guarantee over the high fares and unfair fuel surcharges being levied by many of our competitors.

“Ryanair carried 19% more passengers this July than last year and Ryanair now carries almost three times BA’s recent worldwide traffic.”
