Ryanair's Kenny Jacobs said:
 
 
"Ryanair's May traffic grew by 12% to 10.6m customers, while our load factor jumped 2% points to 94%. These record monthly numbers and load factors were delivered, at lower fares, despite the ongoing disruptions being caused by ATC strikes in France, as lower fares and the continuing success of our "Always Getting Better" customer experience programme continue to deliver even more great value for our customers.
 
Ryanair customers can look forward to more improvements, as part of Year 3 of our "Always Getting Better" programme, which includes even lower fares, more new routes, new digital features and new cabin interiors, as Ryanair continues to deliver the lowest fares and the most on time flights in Europe."
