Maybe this a good starting point FT.com - Markets Data
Total operating expenses rose by 25% to €1,636.2m, primarily due to an increase in fuel prices, the higher level of activity, and increased operating costs associated with the growth of the airline. Fuel, which reprensents 40% of total operating costs compared to 35% in the comparative period, increased by 44% to €660.2m due to the increase in the price per gallon paid and a 21% increase in the number of hours flown. Unit costs excluding fuel rose by 4% and including fuel they rose by 13%. Operating margin decreased by 1 point to 25% whilst operating profit increased by 21% to €545.4m.
So the question is just how much fuel hedging has been done. . . And without going thought finanicals all night, i couldnt tell you, im sure someone will. But I do know ryanair has been hedging its fuel for a while in advance.

"I see the toys out of the pram yet again - this time regarding the boarding pass issue with a judge in Barcelona who has ruled against the airline. Details on the Ryanair website."

Bristol to Porto
I was due to fly from Bristol to Porto the first week of May. I had a big shock when I read on Prune that the flights have been cancelled. I checked the Ryanair website (pretended I wanted to book a flight) and the flights were unavailable. After going into my booking on the Ryanair website the flights appeared as normal, very confused.
I rang Ryanair direct to ask for clarification. Ryanair told me that it looks like the flights have been cancelled but my booking is still valid. They said that I may receive a e-mail informing me of the cancelled flights in the coming weeks. Reservation agent was no help at all and I am none the wiser.
I just want to find out if the flights are cancelled or not. If they are cancelled (which looks like a strong possibility), when will I receive the confirmation e-mail? How long does it take to receive a refund?
Grateful for any help or advice. Many thanks.

i see between 4 and 8 aircraft are going to EI tomorrow to operate some of their schedules, suppose Ryanair at the end of the day have an interest in what happens here with being such a large shareholder.

Spare aircraft
no slot
BHX has three spare ryanair every day, saw them myself today parked
on the 70/80's stands. Even the other three based don't operate full-time.
EMA I believe also has spares.
No complaints it makes BHX look busier - from afar!

I'm given to understand that for every two bases there is a spare aircraft at one of them all year round.

Does everybody think that Mr O'Leary now wishes he hadn't bought quite so many aeroplanes?
When are the summer schedules finished being loaded?

Derry just cannot sustain the services, would be brilliant for all if it could but if RYR can't pull it off with a based plane then who is. If its to be RE with an ATR42 then prices will have to be high enough to make it commercially worth while, and while yes they may get an incentive in fees from the Airport we'll all be back to square 1 when these are re-introduced as seen at BHD with RYR, and if the prices r too high then because we are a price concious group of people we will just travel the extra to BFS or BHD to get the flight. N.Ireland cannot sustain 3 airports, it's as simple as that. A couple of ad hoc charters to sun destinations in the summer and 1 daily london freq will be all that Derry will ever be able to sustain long term.

RYR aircraft filling in some strike-related gaps for Aer Lingus today, just as they did for BA last year.

"No most Major Airlines have Aircraft not working in the Winter months "
So ideally for max fleet utilisation you should operate in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres!
"RYR aircraft filling in some strike-related gaps for Aer Lingus today, just as they did for BA last year."
What will that do to their passenger numbers, flow and movement statistics?

the boarding pass charge
I definitely support Ryanair arguments concerning the Spanish court ruling. When the passenger has agreed to print the boarding pass himself, the airline should be able to charge a fee for him to be able to get the pass re-issued if lost. I do not support paying for self-printed passes, but that's a separate issue.
By the way, wouldn't it be possible to introduce a totally paperless system? A special check-in code given verbally while presenting the id? Or better a small size chip card containing everything necessary on it, issued once and re-usable for each subsequent travel?
