	Feb 15	Feb 16	Change

Load Factor	89%	93%	+4%

Ryanair's Kenny Jacobs said:

"Ryanair's February traffic grew by 28% to 7.4m customers, while our load factor jumped 4% points to 93%. These record monthly numbers and load factors are due to our lower fares, our stronger forward bookings and the continuing success of our "Always Getting Better" customer experience programme, which continues to deliver better than expected traffic and load factors.

Ryanair customers continue to enjoy more service enhancements, as we continue Year 2 of our AGB programme, which includes our new website, new app, new cabin interiors, new crew uniforms, and improved inflight menus, as Ryanair continues to deliver much more than just the lowest fares and the most on time flights in Europe."
