Ryanair Chief Marketing Officer, Kenny Jacobs said:

           "Ryanair's March traffic grew by 28% to 6.67m customers, while our load factor jumped by 10% points to 90%, thanks to our lower fares, our stronger forward booking strategy and the continuing success of our "Always Getting Better" customer programme, which continues to deliver better than expected load factors on our significantly expanded winter schedule.

            With our new routes, increased frequencies and Business Plus service, customers can now look
            forward to further service enhancements, as we roll out the 2nd year of our AGB programme in 2015,
           which includes a new website and app, new cabin interiors, new crew uniforms and inflight menus,
           reduced airport fees, and great new digital features such as 'hold the fare', destination content and fare
           comparison services."
