Overview
- The airline now expects full‑year average fares to rise 1–2 percentage points above prior guidance to roughly 8–9% on strong early‑year bookings.
- Full‑year traffic guidance increases to almost 208 million passengers, helped by earlier Boeing deliveries, with the final four 737‑8‑200s due by end‑February.
- Third‑quarter revenue reached €3.21 billion as Ryanair carried 47.5 million passengers, up 6%, with average fares about 4% higher and a 92% load factor.
- Reported profit was reduced by an approximately €85 million provision linked to Italy’s €256 million antitrust fine, which Ryanair is appealing.
- The company maintains a pre‑exceptional after‑tax profit range of €2.13–€2.23 billion, warns of geopolitical, macro and ATC risks, and notes a short‑term bookings bump from high‑profile publicity.
