Madrid, 3 de marzo de 2020. Ryanair Holdings PLC ha anunciado hoy sus estadísticas de tráfico correspondientes al mes de febrero de 2020:

 

	2019	2020 (ocupación)	Crecimiento
Ryanair Group	9,6m	10,5m (96%)	+9%
Ryanair	9,3m	10,0m (96%)	+8%
Lauda	0,3m	0,5m (94%)	+67%

  

Balance anual

142,2m

153,8m (96%)

+8%

 

• Ryanair operó más de 58.000 vuelos regulares durante el mes de febrero.

 

 

Con motivo de la reducción de hasta el 25% del programa de vuelos italianos de corto radio de Ryanair, es probable que el tráfico y la ocupación sean inferiores a lo normal en los meses de marzo y abril. Estos cambios afectarán principalmente a los vuelos operados desde, hacia y dentro de Italia durante un periodo de 3 semanas comprendido entre el 17 de marzo y el 8 de abril. La aerolínea ha sufrido una caída en el número de reservas durante ese periodo debido al brote del virus Covid-19 en varios países europeos.

Ryanair Holdings PLC a publié aujourd’hui (3 Mar) ses statistiques de trafic pour le mois de février, comme suit :

	2019	2020      (TR)	Variation
Ryanair Group	9,6m	10,5m     (96%)	+9%
Ryanair	9,3m	10,0m     (96%)	+8%
Lauda	0,3m	0,5m     (94%)	+67%

                                                                                   

Traffic Annuel

142,2m

• Ryanair a opéré plus de 58 000 vols programmés en février.

 

Étant donné que Ryanair a annulé jusqu’à 25% de son programme de vols court-courrier italien (principalement vers/depuis et en Italie) pour une période de 3 semaines du 17 mars au 8 avril, le trafic et le taux de remplissage des mois de mars et avril devraient être inférieur à la normale en raison de la baisse des réservations sur cette période en réponse à l’épidémie du virus Covid-19 dans un certain nombre de pays européens.

Ryanair Holdings plc dziś (3 marca) opublikował lutowe statystyki.

 

	2019	2020      (LF)	Wzrost
Ryanair Group	9.6 mln	10,5 mln (96%)	+9%
Ryanair	9,3 mln	10,6 mln (96%)	+8%

• Ryanair wykonał w lutym ponad 58.000 lotów

 

Ryanair anulował do 25% swoich krótkodystansowych lotów do Włoch (do / z Włoch i na terenie Włoch) na okres 3 tygodni od 17 marca do 8 kwietnia. Wzrosty ruchu lotniczego oraz współczynnika obłożenia lotów (LF) będą w tych miesiącach niższe niż zwykle z powodu spadku liczby rezerwacji w związku rozprzestrzenieaniem się wirusa Covid-19 w wielu krajach europejskich.

Ryanair Holdings PLC ha diffuso oggi (3 marzo) i dati relativi al traffico del gruppo per il mese di febbraio:

 

	2019	2020      (LF)	Growth
Ryanair Group	9.6m	10.5m     (96%)	+9%
Ryanair	9.3m	10.0m     (96%)	+8%
Lauda	0.3m	0.5m     (94%)	+67%

• Ryanair ha operato oltre 58.000 voli a febbraio.

 

Poiché Ryanair ha cancellato fino al 25% del suo operativo italiano a corto raggio (principalmente da/verso e all’interno dell’Italia) per un periodo di 3 settimane dal 17 marzo all’8 aprile, è probabile che il traffico e il load factor nei mesi di marzo e aprile siano inferiori allo standard. La causa del calo delle prenotazioni durante il periodo è conseguenza del virus Covid-19 registrato in un certo numero di paesi europei.

Ryanair Holdings plc today (3 Mar) released February traffic statistics as follows:

	2019	2020      (LF)	Growth
Ryanair Group	9.6m	10.5m     (96%)	+9%
Ryanair	9.3m	10.0m     (96%)	+8%

• Ryanair operated over 58,000 scheduled flights in February.

Since Ryanair has cancelled up to 25% of its Italian short haul program (mainly to/from and within Italy) for the 3-week period from 17^th Mar to 8^th Apr, traffic and load factor in the months of Mar & Apr is likely to be lower than normal due to the fall in bookings during that period in response to the Covid-19 virus outbreak in a number of European countries.

All Affected Passengers Contacted By Email Today

Ryanair today (Mon 2 Mar) notified passengers that it was reducing its short haul flight program (mainly to and from Italy) by up to 25% for a 3 week period from Tues 17^th Mar to Wed 8^th Apr, in response to the Covid-19 Virus. Over the past week, Ryanair has seen a significant drop in bookings over that late March/early April period, in response to the Covid-19 Virus. There has also been a significant step up in passenger no-shows on flights, particularly from and within Italy.

Ryanair does not expect these cancellations to have a material impact on current year (end Mar 2020) guidance, but it is far too early to speculate what impact the Covid-19 outbreak will have on FY21 earnings. Ryanair will continue to monitor bookings carefully, and will continue to flex its schedules in response to this developing situation. Ryanair is working closely with relevant authorities and is following all guidelines provided by WHO and EASA to ensure the health and wellbeing of our people and our customers.

A daily Covid-19 action meeting across all areas of the airline has been initiated since Mon 24^th Feb, and is focusing on maintaining operational efficiency and cost saving to address the current downturn in business caused by the Covid-19 Virus, including;

• Rolling schedule cuts as booking patterns alter
• Allocating annual leave and/or unpaid leave to pilots and cabin crew
• Recruitment, and promotion and pay freezes across the network
• Working with 3^rd party suppliers to cut costs.

Ryanair remains one of the strongest airlines in the industry with €4bn in cash on its balance sheet, industry leading unit costs, 90% of the fleet is owned, and is mainly debt free. We expect that this Covid-19 Virus will result in further EU airline failures over the coming weeks.

Ryanair Group CEO, Michael O’Leary said:

“Our focus at this time is on minimising any risk to our people and our passengers. While we are heavily booked over the next two weeks, there has been a notable drop in forward bookings towards the end of Mar, into early Apr. It makes sense to selectively prune our schedule to and from those airports where travel has been most affected by the Covid-19 outbreak.

This is a time for calm. We will make sensible cuts to our schedules over the comings weeks to reflect weaker bookings, and changing travel patterns. All affected customers will be advised of any schedule changes at least 14 days in advance. While 80% of people who contract Covid-19 suffer only mild symptoms, the risk of infection can be significantly reduced by frequent hand washing with soap and water.

We will continue to comply fully with guidelines from National Governments, the WHO and EASA as they are updated on a regular basis. We will update the market in due course on any significant developments”

Ryanair, Europe’s favourite airline, today (20 Feb) renewed its charity partnership with ISPCC Childline, which will be its chosen charity partner once again in 2020.  ISPCC Childline provides a 24 hour listening service, which listens to, supports and empowers children and young people through its phone, online chat and text services.

 

The ISPCC’s Childline service costs almost €4 million to run every year and relies on corporate and public donations for 90 per cent of its funding.  In continuing its partnership for the coming year, Ryanair will again raise vital funds for Childline through a variety of initiatives.  Ryanair has donated over €450,000 to ISPCC Childline in the first four years of the partnership and looks forward to continuing to work with ISPCC Childline for a fifth year.

 

Ryanair customers in Ireland can now support ISPCC Childline when booking their next flight. This €1 donation option is live on www.ryanair.com/ie, where Ryanair customers in Ireland can not only avail of the lowest fares, but will be able to support this vital service for children.

 

Ryanair’s Senior Communications Manager, Alejandra Ruiz said:

“We are very pleased to select ISPCC Childline as our chosen charity partner for 2020, and to continue our partnership for a fifth successive year.  Over the past four years, we have launched a number of initiatives to support ISPCC Childline, including a Name a Plane & Fly to Spain competition, a Christmas Giveaway, summer holiday competitions, and most recently a digital donation feature in the checkout process, which last year raised an astounding €25,000 for ISPCC.

 

We look forward to launching more great activities over the next 12 months to raise more funds for this very worthy cause, which does so much invaluable work to help children in need. Customers will be able to continue supporting this partnership both online and offline and we look forward to making it another year to remember for Childline in 2020.”

 

ISPCC Corporate Account Manager, Marianne O’Donoghue said:

“ISPCC Childline would like to extend sincere thanks to the fantastic team at Ryanair for the significant support it has shown the service over the past four years in raising both funds and awareness. We are hugely grateful to Ryanair for choosing to continue this partnership in 2020. Through the partnership, Ryanair has helped to ensure every child and young person in Ireland always has somewhere they can turn – at any time of the day or night, no matter what might be on their mind. With Ryanair’s support, Childline will always be here to listen.”
