Shares in no-frills airline, Ryanair, fell by 30c to E3.07 after it said profit for the full year would be at the lower end of a previous range. It reported that its net profit rose by 550pc in the first three months of its financial year to E136.5m, slightly beating market expectations. Chief executive Michael O'Leary said the results were distorted by a 42pc reduction in the airline's fuel bill. Revenue for the quarter to the end of June was flat compared with the same period last year at E775m. Costs excluding fuel fell by 5pc. Passenger numbers in the period rose by 11pc to 16.6 million, which Mr O'Leary attributed to a 13pc fall in average fares. Ancillary revenues - which include items such as on-board sales, baggage fees and priority boarding charges - rose by 13pc to E165.3m.

Keelingr I have be saying the same thing on advfn on Ireland since end of 2006! Sadly it was always going to end in tears for them no matter what happened globally. But the global problems on top of their domestic mismanagment means they will probably end up in a Japan type depression for a few years.

The Spanish national statistics office reported traveller numbers to Spanish hotels for April on Friday, which would provide an indication of the passenger numbers for airlines flying to there. Foreign travellers to Spanish hotels fell 4.5% yoy in April on a 12 month moving average basis, down from a 3.9% decline in March and -2.2% in February. Within these numbers, Irish travellers
were down 0.4% yoy (on the same basis), but those from the UK are down 8.4% (-7.9% in March and -6.8% in February), highlighting the impact of the weakness of Sterling alongside the economic downturn on visitors from the UK to Spain.

Historically Ryanair has much better timekeeping than Sleazyjet, which also has many of the above charges. The latter very often cancels late flights because the plane has not returned from the destination.
Since most of its flights are short you can just buy nothing onboard, just a coffee and thats fine
