Can someone explain something for me please ?
During tge summer Ryanair makes lots of money and runs its pilots and cabin crew and aircraft to close to capacity.
During the winter sales are much lower, staff tend to use fewer hours and many aircraft are grounded.

Is the grounding in winter primarily because of staff availability or is it simply because many winter flights just wouldn't make any money ?
