Ryanair Forecasts Fare Recovery After Profit Surge

Ryanair has hinted at a strong rebound in fares after reporting a rise in first-half net profit and a boost to its full-year passenger forecast. The airline said it could more than recover last year’s 7% fare decline, supported by earlier-than-expected aircraft deliveries from Boeing.

Europe’s largest low-cost carrier posted solid financial results for the six months ending September, driven by strong summer demand and cost discipline. The airline now expects higher passenger volumes for the fiscal year, reflecting continued travel demand across its core markets.

Ryanair also confirmed that early Boeing deliveries will enable it to increase capacity faster than anticipated, positioning the airline for growth into 2025. The carrier remains focused on expanding its network and maintaining competitive pricing as fuel and operational costs fluctuate.
