Περιλαμβανοντας Τα 0.5εκ Της Lauda Για Πρωτη Φορα

Η Ryanair, η Νο.1 αεροπορική εταιρία της Ευρώπης, σήμερα (4 Σεπ) ανακοίνωσε τα στατιστικά της επιβατικής κίνησης του Αυγούστου:

 

• Η συνολική κίνηση αυξήθηκε κατά 9% σε 13.8 εκ. με συντελεστή πληρότητας 97%
• Η κίνηση της Ryanair αυξήθηκε κατά 5% σε 13.3εκ. πελάτες με συντελεστή πληρότητας 97%
• Η κίνηση της Lauda ήταν 0.5εκ. πελάτες με συντελεστή πληρότητας 92%
• Η έλειψη προσωπικού ελεγκτών εναέριας κυκλοφορίας και μια άσκοπη απεργία των πιλότων (10 Αυγ) προκάλεσε στην ακύρωση σχεδόν 550 πτήσεων τον Αύγουστο σε σύγκριση με τις μόλις 27 ακυρώσεις τον Αύγουστο του 2017

 

 

 

	Αυγ 17 Πελάτες (LF)	Αυγ 18 Πελάτες (LF)	Ανάπτυξη
Ryanair	12.7ΕΚ (97%)	13.3ΕΚ (97%)	+5%
Lauda	–               –	0.5ΕΚ (92%)	–
Total	12.7ΕΚ (97%)	13.8ΕΚ (97%)	+9%

 

 

Ο Kenny Jacobs της Ryanair δήλωσε:

 

“Η επιβατική κίνηση της Ryanair τον Αύγουστο (η οποία περιλαμβάνει την κίνηση της Lauda για πρώτη φορά) αυξήθηκε κατά 9% σε 13.8εκ. πελάτες, ενώ ο συντελεστής πληρότητας ήταν αμετάβλητος με ακόμα χαμηλότερες τιμές.

 

Δυστυχώς, πάνω από 100,000 πελάτες της Ryanair είδαν τις πτήσεις τους να ακυρώνονται τον Αύγουστο εξαιτίας των επαναλαμβανόμενων ελλείψεων προσωπικού ελεγκτών εναέριας κυκλοφορίας στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, την Γερμανία και τη Γαλλία, και μία μέρα άσκοπης απεργίας των πιλότων. Η Ryanair, μαζί με τις υπόλοιπες Ευρωπαϊκές αεροπορικές εταιρίες, ζητούν επείγουσες ενέργειες από την Ευρωπαϊκή και τις κυβερνήσεις για να διορθωθούν οι ελλείψεις προσωπικού ελεγκτών εναέριας κυκλοφορίας οι οποίες διακόπτουν τον προγραμματισμό των ταξιδιών για εκατομμύρια Ευρωπαίους καταναλωτές αυτό το καλοκαίρι.”

Ryanair’s charter airline, Ryanair Sun, continues to grow strongly, carrying 700,000 customers in S 2018 season while currently negotiating a wider charter programme for S 2019 with Poland’s leading tour operators.

In Warsaw, Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary said:

“Ryanair is pleased to launch our biggest ever Poland S 2019 schedule with 210 routes, including 17 new routes to exciting destinations such as Barcelona, Bordeaux, Hamburg and Marseille. Our S 2019 schedule will deliver 12.5m customers p.a. to/from our 13 Polish airports, all at the lowest fares, as we continue to grow Polish routes, traffic, tourism and jobs.  

Meanwhile, Ryanair hopes to double its traffic at Warsaw Modlin Airport from 3m to 6m customers p.a., which will create 2,250 new jobs in and around Modlin in the next five years, however the growth and development of Modlin is being unfairly and unlawfully blocked by the competing Chopin Airport and its owners, PPL. Ryanair has already lodged a complaint with the EU and has also made a written offer to co-finance or invest in any new infrastructural development at Modlin needed to allow it to grow and offer low fare choice and competition to high cost Warsaw Chopin airport.”

Ryanair today (4 Sept) reported that over ten thousand customers have switched to its new lower cost £8 x 10kg checked bag (from the £25 x 20kg bag), as part of its new cabin baggage policy, in the first 3 days since it went live on the Ryanair.com website on 1 Sept for travel on/after 1 Nov.

Ryanair’s new policy has cut check bag fees by offering a lower cost £8 x 10kg check bag (currently £25 x 20kg). This new bag policy eliminates all free 2^nd gate bags, (which have been causing flight delays this summer), from 1 Nov next as follows:

– Priority Boarding customers can continue to bring 2 free carry-on bags (1 x 10kg wheelie bag and 1 small bag).

– Non-priority customers can only bring 1 free (small) carry-on bag from 1 Nov.

– If non-priority customers want to bring a 2nd bigger (wheelie) bag they can buy a lower cost 10kg check bag for £8 at time of booking (currently a 20kg bag costs £25). This 10kg wheelie bag must be checked in at the airport bag drop desk.

– All customers with checked bags can now switch from the £25 x 20kg bag to the cheaper £8 x 10kg checked bag.

 

Ryanair’s Kenny Jacobs said:

“Ryanair customers are already switching from our £25 x 20kg checked bag to our new lower cost £8 x 10kg checked bag option, which is now available for all flights from 1^st November. This new lower cost £8 x 10kg checked bag means that checked bag income will probably decline as we deliver more savings to Ryanair customers. Up to 50% of customers will continue to bring two free carry-on bags from as they travel on Priority Boarding and this new policy will speed up the boarding and cut flight delays.”

Includes 0.5m Lauda Traffic For First Time

Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, today (4 Sep) released August traffic statistics as follows:

– Total traffic grew 9% to 13.8m with a 97% load factor
– Ryanair traffic grew 5% to 13.3m customers with a 97% load factor
– Lauda traffic was 0.5m customers with a 92% load factor
– ATC staff shortages and one unnecessary pilot strike (10 Aug) caused almost 550 flight cancellations in August compared to just 27 cancellations in August 17

	Aug 17 Customers (LF)	Aug 18 Customers (LF)	Growth
Ryanair	12.7M (97%)	13.3M (97%)	+5%
Lauda	–               –	0.5M (92%)	–
Total	12.7M (97%)	13.8M (97%)	+9%

 

Ryanair’s Kenny Jacobs said:

“Ryanair’s August traffic (which includes Lauda traffic for the first time) grew by 9% to 13.8m customers, while our load factor was unchanged at 97%, on the back of even lower fares.

Regrettably, over 100,000 Ryanair customers had their flights cancelled in August because of repeated ATC staff shortages in the UK, Germany and France, and one day of unnecessary pilot strikes. Ryanair, together with other European airlines, calls for urgent action by the EU Commission and Governments to correct these ATC staff shortages which are disrupting the travel plans of millions of Europe’s consumers this summer.”
