Ryanair load factors

As has been said many times in this forum, load factors are but one of a number of measures - its easy to fill a plane to get a high load factor - free seats could get you a 100% load factor. Its the total of what the passengers are paying that really matters and that makes a flight profitable or not.

Similarly total number of passengers carried is but one factor - there is no merit in carrying more passengers if they are not paying enough to cover the costs

Who is making the most money - Ryanair or Easyjet?
