2. Represents the number of passengers as a proportion of the number of seats available for passengers.


3. Represents the number of initial seat sales sold via the Ryanair internet site as a percentage of total initial seat sales. Initial seat sales exclude changed and amended seat sales.


Speaking this afternoon, Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Paul Fitzsimmons, said:


“This is another record month for Ryanair, carrying more passengers with improved load factors than September last year. Soon Ryanair will carry its 100 Millionth passenger and to celebrate, 1 passenger who books with us between now and 30th November ‘04 and travels up to 21st December ‘04 will win €100,000 – GUARANTEED. If you’re not in, you can’t win – and we would urge passengers to book now at www.ryanair.com – it could be you!”
